For devm_phy_destroy(), its comment says it needs to invoke phy_destroy() to destroy the phy, but it does not invoke the function actually since devres_destroy() will not call devm_phy_consume() at all which will call the function, and the missing phy_destroy() call will case that the phy fails to be destroyed.
Here too, split in at least two sentences.
Fixed by using devres_release() instead of devres_destroy() within the API.
And add a comment about there not being any in-tree users of the interface.
And consider dropping it.
