It might be done if this benefits HW description. However I don't
think it is really possible to define the usb-switch schema that
covers all mux and retimer cases.
Let's cover major usecases:
- simple SBU mux, is connected only to the SBU / DP AUX lines.
  - gpio-sbu-mux misses the port connected to DP AUX

- SBU switch. It is connected to SBU lines and to two other ports
(e.g. DP AUX and USB4/PCIe SBU)
  - gpio-sbu-mux in some laptops, not supported yet

- Audio accessory mode MUX. Connects USB-C DP/DM and SBU lines either
to the USB 2.0 controller + DP AUX (or any other usecase) or to the
audio codec
  - FSA4480,
  - WCD939X

- Debug accessory mode MUX. Connects USB-C DP/DM, SS and SBU lines
either to the USB 2.0, USB+DP SS and DP AUX or to the JTAG port
  - Qualcomm EUD?

- USB/DP MUX: Connects USB-C SS and SBU lines either to the USB 3.0 or
to the DP and DP AUX
  - pi3usb30532, no bindings

- USB-C SS retimer. Is connected to USB-C SS lines and and to the SS
lines on the other side
  - no known examples

- USB-C SS + SBU retirmer. Is connected to USB-C SS + SBU lines and
and to the SS + SBU lines on the other side.
  - nb7vpq904m Second SBU port is missing in bindings
  - ptn36502 Second SBU port is missing in bindings

There might be some combinations of these mux/switch/retimers.

Hope this summary helps.
