Hard to say what might be going on. Some obvious questions to
narrow it down, though:
- Is this something new and UCSI worked before or has UCSI been broken
with older kernels as well (maybe with different or no error
messages).
- If you get the warning but not the "PPM init failed" message,
does UCSI actually work? Try to plug something into the USB-C
ports and watch out for additional error messages (possibly after
a timeout). Do new files/devices show up in sysfs?
- Printing the value of CCI at various stages of the init process
might help us to understand what's going on.

Best regards,
Christian
