Hi Jun,

The DP PHY is optional: the Rockchip RK3399 eDP controller (used as the
internal eDP port) has no separate PHY device and relies on its built-in
PHY, which is programmed directly through the GRF registers, so its DT
node carries no "phys"/"phy-names" property.

Requesting the PHY with devm_phy_get() therefore returns -ENODEV (or
-ENOSYS when CONFIG_GENERIC_PHY is disabled) and the driver logs a
misleading "no DP phy configured" error at probe time before falling back
to a NULL phy.

Use devm_phy_optional_get() instead, which returns NULL when the PHY is
absent and otherwise behaves identically, and drop the manual -ENODEV/
-ENOSYS handling. This also removes the spurious error message.

It should be better to add some comments here:

/*
 * Exynos5/RK3288/RK3399 use Analogix DP controller built-in PHY,
 * no separate PHY configuration is needed.
 */

+       dp->phy = devm_phy_optional_get(dp->dev, "dp");
+       if (IS_ERR(dp->phy))
+               return ERR_CAST(dp->phy);
dp->clock = devm_clk_get(&pdev->dev, "dp");
