It's not a problem, that's why we have the software nodes. The nodes
can be created before the device entires. The node for pi3usb30532
will just be the parent node for the new nodes we add for the mux and
switch.

I don't want to do anymore device name matching unless we have to, and
here we don't have to. We can name the nodes for those virtual mux and
switch, and then just do fwnode_find_named_child_node() in
pi3usb30532.c for both of them.

OK, I'll wait for you results on that.
