Got it, will fix it in next version.

BTW:

I encounter a build error when CONFIG_USB_ROLE_SWITCH is not enabled,

drivers/usb/mtu3/mtu3_dr.o: In function `ssusb_role_sw_register':
./drivers/usb/mtu3/mtu3_dr.c:460: undefined reference to
`usb_role_switch_register'
drivers/usb/mtu3/mtu3_dr.o: In function `ssusb_otg_switch_exit':
./drivers/usb/mtu3/mtu3_dr.c:491: undefined reference to
`usb_role_switch_unregister'

the following patch has fixed the issue, but seems not get into kernel,
[v3,08/12] usb: roles: Add usb role switch notifier.
https://patchwork.kernel.org/patch/10836525/

What should I do if I add a new API? Thanks
