First of all, please don't make assumptions. It's better to ask rather
than making assumptions which turn up to be incorrect.

Compatibles describe hardware. DT describes hardware. There are no
drivers in question (yet).
You have TI switch on your board, so you have to use "ti,hd3ss3220" to
describe it.

Existing schema describes it as an I2C device. You have to extend the
schema to allow non-i2c attachment. Describe GPIOs, make reg optional.
Make this description purely from the datasheet and usb-c-connector
point of view.

And this is the second, largely independent question. The
usb-conn-gpio driver is a platform driver.The existing hd3ss3220.c
driver is an I2C one. There is no clash between them.

Note, unlike plain gpio-b-connector, the switch supports more pins and
actually provides USB-C information to the host even when used in the
dumb mode. Thus it might be better to add a separate driver that
registers typec port and reports USB-C events.
