On some devices Uniwill offers the option to set the USB-C port to
prioritise charging or performance. This patch exposes this setting to the
userspace via sysfs for all TUXEDO devices supporting it.

Please drop this for-loop and use a if-statement instead:

    if (value & USB_C_POWER_PRIORITY)
        return sysfs_emit(buf, "%s\n", USB_C_POWER_PRIORITY_OPTIONS_TEXT[USB_C_POWER_PRIORITY_OPTIONS_PERFORMANCE]);

    return sysfs_emit(buf, "%s\n", USB_C_POWER_PRIORITY_OPTIONS_TEXT[USB_C_POWER_PRIORITY_OPTIONS_CHARGING]);

Also, i think USB_C_POWER_PRIORITY_OPTIONS_VALUE[] is unnecessary. Using an if-statement would yield more readable
code than using for-loops in this case.

I can see where the for loop is unnecessary, but dropping USB_C_POWER_PRIORITY_OPTIONS_VALUE kinda obfuscates that there are 2 profiles, i like the clear association with the enum and stuff. the compile will be optimizing it out anyway.

You need to take the appropriate mutex here.

I think it would make sense to move the feature check into usb_c_power_priority_restore().
This way usb_c_power_priority_restore() can be called by both the notifier and the resume
code directly.

How would i then distinct between returning NOTIFY_DONE and NOTIFY_OK? notifier_from_errno only returns NOTIFY_OK.


It would also be very nice if you can include a short changelog with your next patch series.
