[PATCH 3/5] drivers/thunderbolt: Don't make DROM read success compulsory
From: Mario Limonciello
Date: Wed Mar 02 2022 - 17:09:45 EST
The USB4 specification doesn't make any requirements that reading
a device router's DROM is needed for the operation of the device.
On page 207 of the USB4 1.0 spec it does mention that a CM may use
the DROM to make decision though:
```
After enumerating a Router, the Connection Manager may read the
contents of the Router’s DROM. If, after reading the contents of
DROM, the Connection Manager decides that it does not want the
Router in its Domain...
```
Other connection manager solutions don't necessarily read it or gate
the usability of the device on whether it was read.
So make failures when reading the DROM show warnings but not
fail the initialization of the switch.
