It felt like it would not be the correct thing to do either. I've tried 
re-arranging the code in tcpci.c to enable the sink before disabling the 
source but the only way I found to not disable the power was by setting 
both of those to true.

What about adding some device tree entries for the initial vbus state 
and default to false if they are not present ?

init-vbus-source and init-vbus-charge ?
