[PATCH 1/5] dt-bindings: usb: parade,ps8830: Add parade,disable-usb4 property

From: Jens Glathe via B4 Relay

Date: Sat Jul 18 2026 - 13:08:11 EST


From: Jens Glathe <jens.glathe@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx>

Document a new optional boolean property "parade,disable-usb4".
When present, the retimer rejects USB4 mode by returning -EOPNOTSUPP,
forcing a fallback to USB3 + DP Alternate Mode.
