It might work for Intel Mux agent but is it guaranteed to be safe for any other future mux implementation? In other words, what if a "true" USB4 cable is connected which doesn't have the Thunderbolt SVID alt mode? (Pre-fetching some alternatives in case the answer is no) You might want to check with the Cros EC team if you can repurpose a bit of the "reserved" field for specifying whether the cable is TBT or not. Either that or see if there is a way to determine from the pd_ctrl->cable_speed whether the cable is actually TBT or not. Failing all the above, perhaps you'll have to wait for the PD discovery stuff to make it's way through review and use that (note that there may be timing issues between the Mux update event and PD discovery complete event reaching the port driver).
