I think you are again mixing things here. You don't have to use the
existing TI driver. Instead you can start with the
gpio-b-usb-connector driver and later push a new driver for the switch
instead. This has nothing to do with the hardware description of the
device.

Well, granted that we are now close to the release, you can not merge
anything. So you have about three weeks before the next patches can
hit Bjorn's tree. I think this leaves plenty of time to develop a
proper solution.
