Registering real device entries (struct device) for the mode
muxes as well as for the orientation switches.
The Type-C mux code was deliberately attempting to avoid
creation of separate device entries for the orientation
switch and the mode switch (alternate modes) because they
are not physical devices. They are functions of a single
physical multiplexer/demultiplexer switch device.
Unfortunately because of the dependency we still have on the
underlying mux device driver, we had to put in hacks like
the one in the commit 3e3b81965c ("usb: typec: mux: Take
care of driver module reference counting") to make sure the
driver does not disappear from underneath us. Even with
those hacks we were still left with a potential NUll pointer
dereference scenario, so just creating the device entries,
and letting the core take care of the dependencies. No more
hacks needed.
