I can't speak to the QMP PHY specifically (since I'm not using that hardware),
but your impression is right.
There is a component (anx7625) muxing the single DP output to the 2
usb-c-connectors
(specifically, 2 lanes each from the 2 usb-c-connectors).
The other 2 lanes (from the 2 USB-C-connectors) go to a USB3 hub; hence the need
for 2 endpoints for each usb-c-connector).

So,  the anx7625 should register the mode switches and it needs the
graph connections
from 2 usb-c-connectors
