Based on the datasheets we have and the downstream driver, I assume
the hardware implements "lane swap" as simply reversing the order
of the output pins.

In that case the hardware can't output 1 lane DP on any arbitrary lane,
but only lane 0 or 3.

And maybe a bit pedantic, but have the order correct as:

- const: 3
- const: 2

Same as the anx7625 patch, I would reword this as "Serves as Type-C mode
switch if present".
