You got it right.

This driver is not yet converted to use device tree so there is
no way you can know this property name before bindings are
established.

You or someone else first need to define device tree bindings
in Documention/devicetree/bindings/usb/* somwhere, then augment
the driver to use these bindings, including the right name for
the GPIO line, when using the devm_gpiod_get().

Pretty certainly the chosen GPIO name will be "vbus-gpios" in this
case so you will pass "vbus" as name. But that needs to first
be discussed by the DT bindings mailing list.

I wonder how you're testing this though.
