I think extcon bindings are a mess in general...

This is all 1 logical connector, the USB connector. Why are you
describing cables? Those are not part of the h/w and are dynamic.
Describe this as a connector which is one thing (i.e. node). Use a
compatible string that reflects the type of connector
(usb-microab-connector), not the driver you want to use. Then define
GPIO lines needed to provide state information like VBus, ID, charger
modes and control lines like soft connect (D+ pullup enable), VBus
enable, etc.
