I've been thinking more about this. I think we should only have the
'mode-switch' property possible when the USB input pins (port@2) are
connected and the DPI input pins are connected (port@0). Probably you
don't have that case though?

In your case, this device should register either one or two drm_bridges
that connect to whatever downstream is actually muxing the 2 DP lanes
with the USB SS lanes onto the usb-c-connector. If that is the EC for
ChromeOS, then the EC should have a binding that accepts some number of
input ports for DP. The EC would act as a drm_bridge, or in this case
probably two bridges, and also as two type-c switches for each
drm_bridge corresponding to the usb-c-connector nodes. When DP is on the
cable, the type-c switch/mux would signal to the drm_bridge that the
display is 'connected' via DRM_BRIDGE_OP_DETECT and struct
drm_bridge_funcs::detect(). Then the drm_bridge in this anx part would
implement struct drm_bridge_funcs::atomic_enable() and configure the
crosspoint switch the right way depending on the reg property of the
output node in port@1.

Because you don't have the part that implements the orientation-switch,
you don't need to implement the code for it. I think simply adding
support in the binding for mode-switch and orientation-switch if this is
directly wired to a usb-c-connector should be sufficient. Those
properties would be at the top-level and not part of the graph binding.
