[PATCH v1] usb: typec: ucsi: allow retries of ucsi_resume_work

From: Jameson Thies

Date: Tue Aug 18 2026 - 16:57:38 EST


On resume, the UCSI driver will re-enable notifications by sending
SET_NOTIFICATION_ENABLE. The LPM/PPM may be busy during system
resume causing SET_NOTIFICATION_ENABLE to fail and preventing the UCSI
driver from receiving connection status changes.

Change resume work to a delayed workqueue to allow retries on failed
SET_NOTIFICATION_ENABLED commands. Additionally, cancel resume work
on suspend to prevent pending resume commands from impacting suspend.
