I tried 1.36 (R2FET56W) when it was released, but it did not fix my
issue. I have it installed, for sure:
sudo dmidecode | grep 1.36
    Version: R2FET56W (1.36 )
but kernel still sees result of ret = ucsi->ops->read(ucsi,
UCSI_VERSION, &ucsi->version, sizeof(ucsi->version)); as 0

I also have latest EC firmware, too (corresponding to BIOS version)
I'll try to reset BIOS to default setting, to check if it will help.
