'port' is reserved for OF graph binding which this is not.

These are usb-connector binding properties, but this is not a
usb-connector node. However, I think it should be. The main thing to
work out seems to be have multiple connectors.

With your binding, how does one associate the USB host controller with
each port/connector? That's a solved problem with the connector
binding.
