Please do run dt_binding_check on your bindings, even though they are
RFCs.

Why are you inventing an of_graph lookalike here?

I'm expecting that you wont' have any superspeed-only ports. As such
this number would imply be the number of ports listed under the node.

Can you please explain why it's necessary to specify usb_nop_phy?
Wouldn't it be possible to omit the phy in the case of a HS-only port?
In which case this could just be calculated as well.
