Have you tried debugging based on upstream code?
v2 is correct, but the dts needs to improve.
- There is a remote-endpoint connection for USB role switch between
Type-C connector
device and USB controller device
- There is a remote-endpoint connection for orientation and lane configuration
between Type-C connector device and USB/DP PHY device.
