If a USB-C connector is involved, the TypeC controller is supposed to
setup the lane muxing based on the connector orientation. This
happens via the typec API and in this hardware setup the PHY should
not have the rockchip,dp-lane-mux DT property set.

The rockchip,dp-lane-mux property is required if no USB-C connector
is involved. For example if the lanes are routed to a Displayport
connector. In that case the lane setup is fixed in hardware and
there is no TypeC controller involved, which could do any setup ;)
