Subject: [PATCH v4 1/2] usb: dwc3: drd: Avoid error when extcon is missing

If "port" node is missing in PHY controller node, dwc3_get_extcon()
isn't able to find extcon devices. This is perfectly fine in case when
"usb-role-switch" or OTG is used, but next misleading error message is
printed in that case, from of_graph_get_remote_node():

    OF: graph: no port node found in /phy@...4abcd

Avoid printing that message by checking if the port node exists in PHY
node before calling of_graph_get_remote_node(). While at it, add the
comment from mentioned code block, explaining how checking the port
availability helps to avoid the misleading error.
