Currently no issue. It will work with this api as well, since the port node is part of controller node.
For eg:-
https://patchwork.kernel.org/patch/10944627/

However if any one adds port node inside the connector node, then this api may won't work as expected.
Currently I get below error

[    2.299703] OF: graph: no port node found in /soc/i2c@e6500000/hd3ss3220@47

For eg:-

	hd3ss3220@47 {
		compatible = "ti,hd3ss3220";
		...
		....
		usb_con: connector {
                                     ....
                                     ....
			port {
				hd3ss3220_ep: endpoint@0 {
					reg = <0>;
					remote-endpoint = <&usb3peri_role_switch>;
				};
			};
		};
	};

Biju
