Subject: Re: [PATCH v3 1/2] dt-bindings: chrome: Add cros-ec-typec mux props

Hi,

>From the discussion in [1], it looks like reconciling ACPI and DT
bindings for these properties to be identical is challenging.

Let's drop this patch, and move forward with the Patch 2/2 in this
series [2] alone.

We'll continue the discussion about how we can add these properties to
devicetree bindings in a conformant way.

Thanks everyone,

-Prashant,
