The following series of patches add support for implementing the
transceiver as a phy of m_can_platform driver.

TCAN1042 has a standby signal that needs to be pulled high for
sending/receiving messages[1]. TCAN1043 has a enable signal along with
standby signal that needs to be pulled up for sending/receiving
messages[2], and other combinations of the two lines can be used to put the
transceiver in different states to reduce power consumption. On boards
like the AM654-idk and J721e-evm these signals are controlled using gpios.

These gpios are set in phy driver, and the transceiver can be put in
different states using phy API. The phy driver is added in the series [3].

This patch series is dependent on [4].

Changes since v1:
- Used the API devm_phy_get_optional() instead of 
  devm_of_phy_get_optional_by_index()
