How is this mux accessed? You have no control interface defined.

This looks odd. I take it that there's 2 muxes for this h/w? If so then
#mux-control-cells should be 1 and the cell value can be whatever you
want that is meaningful for the mux controller. Could be 0,1 or perhaps
0xe if that's more useful.
