Hi Xin Ji,

Thank you for the patch.

You explained in your reply to v1 review that this describes the
interrupt generated by the ANX7625. It should be replaced by an
interrupts property.

Could you please mention the exact name of the corresponding pins on the
chip for enable and reset ?

I don't think three output ports is correct. Ports 3 and 4 are really
the same. I'm even unsure about port 2 and 3, someone with better
knowledge of USB-C and DisplayPort would be in a better position to
comment.

You're missing the #address-cells and #size-cells properties required
for the ports. As the device is an I2C device we're lucky that the
parent will specify compatible address and size cells numbers, but I'm
not sure we should rely on that luck.

Rob, how does yaml schema handle this ?

The node name should describe the device's function. How about
encoder@58 ?
