Do you really need to redefine those?

I think you just need to mention that there is a required sub-node
"connector", and the place where it's described. So something
like this:

        Required sub-node:
        - connector : The "usb-c-connector". The bindings of the
          connector node are specified in:

                Documentation/devicetree/bindings/connector/usb-connector.txt


Then you just need to define the Chrome OS EC specific properties, so
I guess just the "port-number".


thanks,
