At this application, we didn't use CC1/2 line, we only use the video
format convert(MIPI to DP) feature on anx7625.

The port@2 is for Chromium book external port low power mode control,
the driver according this port to register external connector
notify interface to receive "connect/disconnect" event to do low power
control.

No need to add 2nd example with USB-C port, as I said, we didn't use the
USB Type-C PD feature at anx7625.
