By reading the binding, it says the connector should be a child of the
"interface controller", not the USB controller. In this case I think
the interface controller is the PHY rather than the USB controller.

In addition, the connector is a passive component, and power management
should be done by the "interface controller", either directly by the
PHY or make a dummy interface controller driver that only controls the
Vbus.
