I have not heard from Heikko for a while. There have been some follow-up
patches in

https://git.kernel.org/cgit/linux/kernel/git/balbi/usb.git/log/?h=bxt-typec-pd-fixes

but I am not really sure where this is going. I've been wondering if I
can/should get more actively involved and start driving the series if
Heikki is busy. Thoughts, anyone ?
