I'm sorry confusion casued by my description. It's means extend DP implemnt for USBC phy driver.

Still confirming detail info with HW & design team.
I’ll update the information that has been confirmed so far.
This phy support DP-over-USB-C,but it's not support alt-mode which 2 lane work for DP, other 2 lane work for USB.
TCSR phy mode is read/write reg and we can read for determine phy mode.
