With this commit, TCPC device shall match *two* endpoint ports both for switch
device and mux device if they have the same parent node like the following
existed DT. It causes the callback function is invoked twice both for switch and
mux in tcpm_mux_set() process.

// arch/arm64/boot/dts/rockchip/rk3588-evb1-v10.dts
&usbdp_phy0 {
        mode-switch;
        orientation-switch;
        [...]
        port {
                #address-cells = <1>;
                #size-cells = <0>;

                usbdp_phy0_orientation_switch: endpoint@0 {
                        reg = <0>;
                        remote-endpoint = <&usbc0_orien_sw>;
                };

                usbdp_phy0_dp_altmode_mux: endpoint@1 {
                        reg = <1>;
                        remote-endpoint = <&dp_altmode_mux>;
                };
        };
};
