The intent was the controller would be the parent node of the connector.

How the SS lane mux is represented is what needs to be figured out. I
don't know what that looks like, but it needs to be something that
works for multiple designs. Ideally, that's an extension of the
existing 'usb-c-connector' binding, but if there's good reasons to
redesign it that can happen.
