Who is the mux-control consumer?

This still seems unnecessarily complicated. What I had in mind is just 
something like this:

mux: mux-controller {
  compatible = "gpio-mux";
  #mux-control-cells = <0>;
  mux-gpios = <&gpio3 15 GPIO_ACTIVE_HIGH>,
              <&gpio2 20 GPIO_ACTIVE_HIGH>;
  idle-state = <2>;
};

connector {
  compatible = "usb-c-connector";
  mux-controls = <&mux>;
  ...
};

Then you aren't re-implementing the gpio-mux driver.

This should work for *any* mux implementation as long as the mux states 
always have the same meanings from the perspective of the connector.

Of course, I have little visibility into the possible h/w 
implementations for Type-C and maybe this isn't sufficient. So input 
from Type-C experts would be helpful.
