Here's some dts mock-up on top of the db410c for the of_graph stuff. I
haven't written any code around it, but the idea is to allow the binding
to specify how the mux is connected to upstream and downstream D+/D-
lines. This way, we can do some dt parsing of the endpoints and their
parent nodes to figure out if the mux needs to be set high or low to use
a device connector or a usb hub based on if the id cable is present.
Maybe I'm over thinking things though and we could just have a DT
property for that.
