I'm building a kernel with these patches to test them now
(on hw which uses the axp288 extcon code-paths with the role-sw)

No test results yet, but I did notice this will building:

   CC [M]  drivers/extcon/extcon-axp288.o
drivers/extcon/extcon-axp288.c: In function ‘axp288_extcon_find_role_sw’:
drivers/extcon/extcon-axp288.c:333:9: warning: assignment discards ‘const’ qualifier from pointer target type [-Wdiscarded-qualifiers]
   333 |  swnode = software_node_find_by_name(NULL, "intel-xhci-usb-sw");
       |         ^
