I think it would be better to just move that label (out_unlock) above
the point where clear_bit() is already called instead of separately
calling it like that. That way the Connector Change Event will
also get acknowledged.

If this really can happen, then I think it would be good to also
schedule a task for ucsi_check_connection():

        if (ret < 0) {
                dev_err(ucsi->dev, "%s: GET_CONNECTOR_STATUS failed (%d)\n",
                        __func__, ret);
+               ucsi_partner_task(con, ucsi_check_connection, 1, HZ);
                goto out_unlock;
        }

thanks,
