I expect that someone might need those modes at some point, but I
haven't specified them on purpose, as I don't like writing DT bindings
that can't be tested. I however expoect that those additional modes can
be derived from the connected endpoints.

What do you mean by the 'dual-link' property ? The patch series defines
no such property.
