DRM is not a hardware thing.

The graph binding is already designed to support muxing. Generally, 
multiple endpoints on an input node is a mux. So either the device with 
the input ports knows how to select the input, or you just need a 
mux-control property for the port to have some other device implement 
the control.

You could do it like you have below. That would be appropriate if 
there's a separate h/w device controlling the muxing. Say for example 
some board level device controlled by i2c.
