I'd prefer to have a separate struct:

struct avrcp_role {
        uint16_t version;
        uint16_t supported_events;
        uint16_t registered_events;
};

struct avrcp {
...
        struct avrcp_role ct;
        struct avrcp_role tg;

I guess you did not fully understand my comments regarding AVRCP
roles, the roles are solely based on client/server, so here it is a
server/target no matter the A2DP role since we are receiving a
command.

Ditto.

Again you are think the roles are based on A2DP roles when they are
not, target supported events should reflect what events we support as
server, so we should indicate that we support volume changed even when
acting as a A2DP Source, although this seems to be always omitting
volume changed which would be a regression.

The controller/client supported_events should reflect what the remote
target/server supports, so here we should probably not initialize with
anything (or perhaps initialize with the mandatory ones if there are
any events that the spec indicates as mandatory) but read the
supported events from the remote with avrcp_get_capabilities.
