This seems like something that needs to be configured per system, the
system may not be physically capable of delivering an additional amp
(150% of the current defaults) safely.  It's going to be better to be
out of spec for high current USB devices than to exceed safe physical
limits, there's a good solid reason why the regulator API never touches
the hardware without explicit constraints allowing it to do so.

You're right that its per system.

- smb5_pmi632_params.otg_cl.max_u == 1000000
- smb5_pm8150b_params.otg_cl.max_u == 3000000

For type-c 3 Amps at 5 Volts is correct or 1.5 Amps at 5 Volts, either way the default coming out of the bootloader at 2 Amps is wrong.

I also thought there was support in the USB specs for negotiating how
much power is drawn (not that everything will DTRT there but still)?

Right the Power-delivery stuff up to 100 watts is associated with Vconn which is driven on CC1 or CC2 depending on the orientation of the cable.

This patch deals with the higher spec VBUS current that the pm8150b can drive, not the power-delivery protocol juice over VCONN.

Oh and I should mention the pm8150b is a type-c controller and battery charger block, so you wouldn't connect it to a USB 3.x type-a port.

The Qualcomm reference schematics drive VBUS for those ports from a current limiter - a SY6288F1ABC - which steps down 5v/4amp rail to 5v/1.2amp.

So the pm8150b is exclusively for the type-c not type-a ports.
