Actually, it turns out that these sleeps are not needed. I'll remove it in v7.

pm_runtime_force_suspend() disables runtime PM when the device enters
suspend, and sometime it6505_typec_mux_set() is called before
pm_runtime_force_resume brings runtime PM back. We force power up the
bridge in this case and leave the ref count incremented to make the
future pm_runtime_(get|put)_sync() calls balanced.

I'll include more explanations around this in v7.

I'll remove this part in v7 and try to figure out how to do similar
checking with schemas.

Could you advise where this lib file should go, and what the namings
can be? The "port-switching" logic is specific to some of the DP
bridges, and I'm not sure what kinds of naming/structure fit into this
case.
