It's used to support dual role switch via GPIO when use Type-B
receptacle

Hi Rob,

There are two ways that I think out to support type-B GPIO based dual
role switch.

The first one, as the series used:

&mtu3 {
    status = "okay";

    connector@0 {
        compatible = "usb-b-connector", "linux,typeb-switch-gpio";
        label = "micro-USB";
        type = "micro";
        id-gpio = <&pio 12 GPIO_ACTIVE_HIGH>;
        vbus-supply = <&usb_p0_vbus>;
    };
};

but there are some shortcomings:
1. It's not transparent, USB controller driver should be modified, and
call of_platform_populate() to create platform device for connector,
this is not friendly when the controller driver hasn't child node
before, and also not compatible with other cases, such as Type-C

2. It doesn't keep format consistent with the case using Type-C, or
using PMIC to detect ID pin.

3. vbus-supply will be got by USB controller driver if it aready
supports it


another way as following:

role_sw_iddig {
    compatible = "linux,typeb-switch-gpio";
    status = "okay";

    connector {
        compatible = "usb-b-connector";
        label = "micro-USB";
        type = "micro";
        id-gpios = <&pio 12 GPIO_ACTIVE_HIGH>;
        vbus-supply = <&usb_p0_vbus>;
    };

    port {
        bsw_ep: endpoint@0 {
            remote-endpoint = <&usb_role_sw>;
        };
    };
};

&mtu3 {
    status = "okay";

    port {
        usb_role_sw: endpoint@0 {
            remote-endpoint = <&bsw_ep>;
        };
    };
};

strength:
avoid the shortcomings of the first way
shortcoming:
it's a virtual device and seems not following graph.txt binding,

Do you have any suggestion?

Thanks
