Is there an update to the usb-c-connector binding to accept this port
connection?

I still don't understand the subnode design here. usb-switch as a
container node indicates to me that this is a bus, but in earlier rounds
of this series it was stated this isn't a bus. Why doesn't it work to
merge everything inside usb-switch directly into the drm-bridge node?
