Power operation mode may depends on hardware design, so, add the optional
property power-opmode for usb-c connector to select the power operation
mode capability.

I've acked this version:

frs is used for Fast Role Swap defined in USB PD spec.
I understand it allows to get the same information but I'm wondering why
the property name is limited to -frs- in this case. What about a
non-power delivery USB-C connector ?
I've got no idea. The folks that know USB-C and PD details need to get
together and work all this out. To me, it looks like the same thing...
It looks but...
The purpose of power-opmode property is to configure the USB-C controllers,
especially the non-PD USB-C controllers to determine the power operation
mode that the Type C connector will support and will advertise through CC
pins when it has no power delivery support, whatever the power role: Sink,
Source or Dual
The management of the property is the same that data-role and power-role
properties, and done by USB Type-C Connector Class.
new-source-frs-typec-current specifies initial current capability of the new
source when vSafe5V is applied during PD3.0 Fast Role Swap. So here, this
property is not applied at usb-c controller configuration level, but during
PD Fast Role Swap, so when the Sink become the Source.
Moreover, the related driver code says FRS can only be supported by DRP
ports. So new-source-frs-typec-current property, in addition to being
specific to PD, is also dedicated to DRP usb-c controller.
The property is managed by Type-C Port Controller Manager for PD.
But it's the same set of possible values, right? So we can align the
values at least.
USB Power Delivery FRS values are defined in
include/dt-bindings/usb/pd.h to fit with drivers/usb/typec/tcpm/tcpm.c
frs_typec_current enum.
USB-C power operation mode values are defined in
include/linux/usb/typec.h with typec_pwr_opmode enum and matching with
string values of typec_pwr_opmodes tab.
USB PD requires USB-C.
USB-C doesn't requires USB PD.
drivers/usb/typec/tcpm/tcpm.c already used typec_pwr_opmode values.
USB PD specification Table 6-14 Fixed Supply PDO says:
Fast Role Swap required USB Type-C Current (see also [USB Type-C 2.0]):
Value | Description
00b | Fast Swap not supported (default)
01b | Default USB Power
10b | 1.5A @ 5V
11b | 3.0A @ 5V
Note the *see also USB Type-C 2.0*.
USB Type-C specification 4.6.2.1 USB Type-C Current says:
The USB Type-C connector uses CC pins for configuration including an
ability for a Source to advertise to its port partner (Sink) the amount
of current it shall supply:
• Default is the as-configured for high-power operation current value as
defined by the USB Specification (500 mA for USB 2.0 ports; 900 mA or
1,500 mA for USB 3.2 ports in single-lane or dual-lane operation,
respectively)
• 1.5 A
• 3.0 A
Can we align the names in some way? power-opmode and frs-source-opmode
or ??
I let USB PD specialists answer.
*frs* property fits with USB PD specification, so with USB PD protocol.
*power-opmode fits with USB Type-C specification, so with USB-C hardware
support.
Are these 2 properties mutually exclusive? If so, that should be
captured.
FRS is specific to products with Power Delivery Support.
power-opmode is dedicated to products with USB-C connector support.
