net: phy: microchip: document where the LAN88xx PHYs are used
The driver uses the name LAN88xx for PHYs with phy_id = 0x0007c132. But with this placeholder name no documentation can be found on the net. Document the fact that these PHYs are build into the LAN7800 and LAN7850 USB/Ethernet controllers.
