OK, so it looks like bindings for driver, so a no-go. Unless there is
such device as "manager", this does not look like hardware description.

Having typec and phy as phandles - not children - also suggests this is
some software construct, not hardware description.
So probably I didn't interpret Rob's comment correctly here.
He proposed to merge it with other node:
"probably merged with
one of the nodes these phandles point to."
"Why can't most of this binding be part of"
I don't see how you implemented his comments. Actually, nothing improved
here in this regard - you still have these phandles.
So this comment from Rob is what I was aiming for
"Your other option is instantiate your own device from the virtual
driver's initcall based on presence of the 2 nodes above. "
rather than two mush the pdphy and typec into one device, which they are
not.
I guess what I'm trying to understand is how you guys would suggest that
is actually done.
Could I trouble you for an example ?
