RE: [PATCH] USB TYPEC: RT1711H Type-C Chip Driver

[shufan_lee(李書帆)]

Dear Heikki and Guenter,

  Because there are still other controls of RT1711H that are different from standard TCPCI, e.x. flow of drp toggling.

  Is the suggestion to customize the difference based on tcpci.c for RT1711H?

Best Regards,

Agreed. dwc3 usb support is an excellent example on how to handle this kind of variation.
