After soft reset has completed, an Explicit Contract negotiation occurs. The sink device will receive source capabilitys again. This will cause a duplicate source-capabilities file be created. And the kernel will dump: sysfs: cannot create duplicate filename '/devices/virtual/usb_power_delivery/pd1/source-capabilities' This will unregister existing capabilities when received soft reset or is sending soft reset by sink.
