I still didn't get.
Variable i is just counter here,
And it seems there is a bug, since when i == 1, we will have
i = 1, con == connector[0]:
typec_unregister_port(con->port);
i = 0, con == connector[1]:
typec_unregister_port(con->port); <<< It wasn't registered yet!
The correct code should be something like
if (i > 0)
for (--i; i >= 0; i--) {}
Which
a) makes conditional redundant;
b) classical pattern of while (--i >= 0) {}
So where am I wrong?
