Why? I'd like to make it so you can't have the node defined without
connecting it up to the rest of the system. Is that bad?

 We expect to find a keyboard on the other side of this connector with a
 specific vid/pid, so describe that as a child device at the port of the
 usb device connected upstream.

ChromeOS userspace is checking that the connected device downstream of
this port has the expected vid/pid to quickly rule out USB keyboards
that aren't the detachable keyboard. I wanted to express this in DT so
that it didn't live in ChromeOS userspace forever.
