Hi Heikki,

With "[PATCH] usb: typec: tcpm: Invoke power_supply_changed for
tcpm-source-psy-"
which I just sent, "tcpm-source-psy-" seems to do the job. So the
set/get_current_limit
and pd_capable callbacks are not needed. Please do review
"[PATCH] usb: typec: tcpm: Invoke power_supply_changed for tcpm-source-psy-".

Thanks,
Badhri
