I reread this patch and tried to see it more in the context of the other patches and the existing code. The naming of the existing string tables doesn't help in getting this right, however I have a proposal: typec_find_port_power_role() to get to TYPEC_PORT_SRC/SNK/DRP typec_find_port_data_role() to get to TYPEC_PORT_DFP/UFP/DRD typec_find_power_role() to get to TYPEC_SINK/SOURCE and sometime, if the use should arise typec_find_data_role() to get to TYPEC_DEVICE/HOST I think it is fairly comprehensible, *_port_* concerns a capability and without *_port_* it is an actual state. Plus it matches the names of the constants.
