Introducing usb-connector nodes toplevel, with vbus-supply sounds
reasonable. But to my knowledge there's today no way to acquire a
handle to that regulator, unless you have a struct device for the
connector node.

I don't think it's appropriate to add the supply to any of the phys,
some of the connectors has 2 phys others has 1 phy.

Representing the vbus in the connector but driving it from the phy
(we will need to figure out which one) sounds reasonable. We just need
to make sure this doesn't conflict with the fact that some TCPM
implementations also seems to drive vbus.


I would like this to be properly modelled, but it seems reasonable to
punt that to the todo list for now.
