I'm still confused. Which is valid? "vbus-p#-supply" or "vbus-p0-supply"

If the latter, you need to enumerate all valid options. But these are
in sub nodes for each port, so just "vbus-supply" should be
sufficient.

One more question, does Vbus actually supply power to the phy or you
are just associating the Vbus supply to a connector with a port? The
latter needs a connector node instead and Vbus should be part of that.
There's been some attempts at USB connectors, but we don't really have
one yet (the extcon binding is not it).

Please show in the example. Examples should be complete.
