Some platforms need a simple driver to do some controls according to
typec orientation, this can be extended to be a generic driver with
compatible with "typec-orientation-switch".

changes for v6:
- Use general mux bindings for typec switch, one typec switch
  may have 1 or 2 GPIOs for channel selection, if 1 GPIO, only
  can be used to select cc1 or cc2; if 2 GPIOs, the second GPIO
  can be used to deselect both channels or keep normal operations.
- Add one more connection to usb controller.

No changes for v5.

changes on v4:
- Use compatible instead of bool property for switch matching.
- Change switch GPIO to be switch simple.
- Change the active channel selection GPIO to be optional.

This still seems unnecessarily complicated. What I had in mind is just
something like this:

mux: mux-controller {
  compatible = "gpio-mux";
  #mux-control-cells = <0>;
  mux-gpios = <&gpio3 15 GPIO_ACTIVE_HIGH>,
              <&gpio2 20 GPIO_ACTIVE_HIGH>;
  idle-state = <2>;
};

connector {
  compatible = "usb-c-connector";
  mux-controls = <&mux>;
  ...
};

Then you aren't re-implementing the gpio-mux driver.

This should work for *any* mux implementation as long as the mux
states always have the same meanings from the perspective of the connector.

Of course, I have little visibility into the possible h/w
implementations for Type-C and maybe this isn't sufficient. So input
from Type-C experts would be helpful.
More thinking of this, I have a proposal like this:

 34         mux: mux-controller {
 33                 compatible = "gpio-mux";
 32                 #mux-control-cells = <0>;
 29                 switch-gpios = <&gpio4 20 GPIO_ACTIVE_LOW>,
 28                                 <&gpio2 20 GPIO_ACTIVE_HIGH>;
 27                 idle-state = <2>;
 26         };
 25

Then I don't need re-implement the gpio-mux driver.

 24         typec_switch {
 23                 compatible = "typec-orientation-switch";
 22                 mux-controls = <&mux>;
 21                 mux-control-names = "mux-typec-switch";
 20
 19                 port {
 18                         usb3_data_ss: endpoint@0 {
 17                                 remote-endpoint = <&typec_con_ss>;
 16                         };
 15                 };
 14         };

The simple typec switch driver as the consumer of mux-control,
and also as the provider of typec_switch to typec class, this
can be extended to use other mux solutions.

 31                 usb_con: connector {
 30                         compatible = "usb-c-connector";
 29                         label = "USB-C";
 20                         ... ...
 19                         ports {
 18                                 #address-cells = <1>;
 17                                 #size-cells = <0>;
 16
 15                                 port@1 {
 14                                         reg = <1>;
 13                                         typec_con_ss: endpoint {
 12                                                 remote-endpoint = <&usb3_data_ss>;
 11                                         };
 10                                 };
  9                         };
  8                 };

Then existing typec mux interface can be kept, is this making sense
to you?

Thanks

From h/w point view, this can work if only consider my(GPIO) case.
But I still need register a typec switch in provider side to make it under
the unified typec switch interface:

  7 struct typec_switch {
  6         struct device dev;
  5         typec_switch_set_fn_t set;
  4         struct mux_control *mux_ctrl;
  3 };

typec_switch->dev.parent = mux_chip->dev;

So either I put the typec switch creation in exiting mux-gpio driver; or
I create a new typec switch driver with gpio mux code duplication.

If I go directly with mux control w/o(out of) typec_switch, then I don't
need any driver change as you expect, but I guess this is not preferred,
@Heikki, any comments?

Thanks
Li Jun
