Rob had here objections as these are bindings for the connector, not
PMIC glink/altmode. I still doubt that Qualcomm USB Type-C connectors
have such pin exposed. If you open the schematics, the GPIO is actually
coming out from PMIC and is nowhere around the connector. Please drop my
Ack.

This however could be a pin of the PMIC because it clearly is on the
schematics.



Best regards,
