I'm trying to figure out how to translate this over to DT bindings. Is
there a binding document for this fwnode reference? If not, can you
please update
Documentation/devicetree/bindings/connector/usb-connector.yaml with this
property?

I think this means that the type-c node would have a 'displayport =
<&some_phandle>' property in it that points to the display port hardware
device that's pumping out the DisplayPort data?

I was hoping that we could make a type-c connector into a drm_bridge.
I'm thinking that it would be a DP-to-panel bridge. Then a panel could
be created as well on the end of the type-c connector and the bridge
would report hpd whenever the type-c logic figures out the cable has
been connected and hpd is asserted. The actual DisplayPort hardware
that's encoding data would then find the bridge through the graph
binding connected to the output node.

I'm not sure how MST is handled though. In that scenario maybe there's
more than one panel?

If you're interested the dts file that I'm trying to make this work for
is sc7180-trogdor.dtsi and I need to hook up mdss_dp's output port to
the two type-c connectors, usb_c0 and usb_c1, somehow. The two ports are
actually muxed by the EC (parent node) so only one type-c port can be
connected to the DP hardware at a time.
