[PATCH v4 0/6] FUSB302 USB-C controller support

Hi,

On ROCK 5B power is usually supplied via it's USB-C port. This port has the
data lines connected to RK3588, VBUS connected to the input regulator and
CC pins connected to FUSB302. FUSB302 is a USB-C controller, which can be
accessed via I2C from RK3588. The USB-C controller is needed to figure out
the USB-C cable orientation, but also to do USB PD communication. Thus it
would be great to enable support for it in the operating system.

But the USB-PD specification requires, that a device reacts to USB-PD messages
send by the power-supply within around 5 seconds. If that does not happen the
power-supply assumes, that the device does not support USB-PD. If a device
later starts sending USB-PD messages it is considered an error, which is solved
by doing a hard reset. A USB-PD hard reset means, that all supply voltages are
removed for a short period of time. For boards, which are solely powered
through their USB-C port, like the Radxa Rock 5B, this results in an machine
reset. This is currently worked around by not describing the FUSB302 in the
kernel DT, so nothing will ever speak USB-PD on the Rock 5B. This means

1. the USB-C port cannot be used at all
2. the board will be running via fallback supply, which provides limited
   power capabilities

In order to avoid the hard reset, this adds FUSB302 support to U-Boot, so
that we react to the power-supply's queries in time. The code, which is
originally from the Linux kernel, consists of two parts:

1. the tcpm state machine, which implements the Type C port manager state
   machine as described in the USB PD specification
2. the fusb302 driver, which knows about specific registers

Especially the first part has been heavily modified compared to the
kernel, which makes use of multiple delayed works and threads. For this
I used a priorly ported version from Rockchip, removed their hacks and
any states not necessary in U-Boot (e.g. audio accessory support).

This version has been tested on Radxa Rock 5B using the open source TF-A
(patches recently got merged into master branch) using the following power
supplies:

 * non PD capable (reports 5V 0A)
 * RavPower 90W (ok)
 * UGREEN 100W (ok)
 * Anker 45W (ok)
 * RavPower PB (hard resets in U-Boot, but succeeds at some point,
   I still need to investigate)

Changes since PATCHv3:
 * Rebase to latest master (57949a99b7bd)
 * Rework autoprobing; tcpm_post_bind tries to check if a probe is needed
   based on DT properties and then sets the DM_FLAG_PROBE_AFTER_BIND flag.
   If this accidently increases boot time on some boards they are probably
   missing a 'self-powered;' flag in their USB-C connector node.
 * Rock 5B ft_board_setup(): check for CONFIG_TYPEC_FUSB302 instead of
   CONFIG_MISC_INIT_R to reflect the above change
 * Drop adding 'CONFIG_MISC_INIT_R' to rock5b-rk3588_defconfig because of
   the reworked autoprobing
 * Log an error message if tcpm_send_queued_message() exits early
 * Add R-b for the rockchip specific changes from Kever Yang
 * Increase the timeout in tcpm_pd_transmit(), which seems to be the issue
   Sören Moch ran into. I could not really reproduce it. Please test if this
   helps with your supply (and share the logs if it does not help). I noticed
   this version has issues with an old PD capable powerbank I own. I'm still
   looking into that but wanted to share a new version so that the other
   changes can get reviewed.

Changes since PATCHv2:
 * Rebase to latest master (a70d991212c9)
 * Drop Wang Jie from Cc, since his address bounces
 * I did not add a test suite. I fully agree, that it would be nice to have
   one, but it is also a lot of work. Just emulating a FUSB302 is not enough,
   we also need to emulate the remote USB-PD device to make this useful.
   Without that we would only test what happens when a non-responsive USB-PD
   supply is attached and that is the boring, very simple path in this code.
   On the other hand implementing an emulated USB-C PD remote side more or less
   requires implementing another big state machine.
 * Add documentation for the 'tcpm' command (Simon Glass)
 * I also got asked to add more documentation for the feature in general. I'm
   not really sure what is needed. At least Tim Harvey managed to use it
   considering he got stusb4500 working on top of PATCHV2. If there are more
   specific requests I can write something.
 * Just like PATCHv1, PATCHv2 received a 'Tested-by: Soeren Moch <smoch at web.de>',
   which I did not take over. This time the changes are a lot smaller, but
   the different handling of timeouts might have broken something. (On my end
   things still behave correctly of course, otherwise I wouldn't have sent
   this series)
 * Address feedback from Marek Vasut
  - TCPM core
    - drop useless "failure" function
    - replace printf with log in TCPM command code
    - invert some conditions to reduce indent
    - use read_poll_timeout() in tcpm_pd_transmit()
    - did not add any more 'static' keywords to functions, the non-static
      TCPM functions are exported and called from the fusb302 driver.
    - add a safety guard to tcpm_send_queued_message(), which stops
      the loop if more than 100 messages are send directly after each
      other. This should never happen anyways, but it's better to exit
      cleanly if the code runs astray.
  - FUSB302 driver
    - Drop default initialization for most local ret variables
    - Make some local variables constant
    - Make set_polarity callback optional on the uclass level and drop the
      empty FUSB302 implementation
    - Change buffer initialization in send message function
    - Create define for max. message length magic value
  - Rock 5B board code
    - Add comment why misc_init_r explicitly initializes PD
    - Split defconfig and DT into separate patches (Kever Yang)

Changes since PATCHv1:
 * tcpm: split uclass specific code to tcpm-uclass
 * tcpm_print_info: move printing part to cmd/tcpm.c
 * tcpm_print_info: report more information
   - PD revision
   - Cable orientation
   - Power role
   - Data role
   - Print TCPM state based on connection status
 * tcpm: use "struct udevice *dev" instead of "struct tcpm_port *port"
   as function argument in most places and drop dev from the tcpm_port
   struct
 * tcpm: avoid useless kzalloc + copy + free for incoming events
 * tcpm: use dev_get_uclass_plat() for tcpm_port
 * tcpm: run tcpm_port_init() and tcpm_poll_event() from UCLASS post_probe()
 * tcpm/fusb302: get rid of tcpc_dev by using dm_tcpm_ops() for the
   function pointers and introducing get_connector_node() for the
   ofnode
 * fusb302: use "struct udevice *dev" instead of "struct fusb302_chip *chip"
   as function argument and drop dev from the fusb302_chip struct
 * fusb302: drop multiple unused members from fusb302_chip
 * fusb302: directly use udelay instead of usleep_range define
 * fusb302: use fusb302_ prefix for all functions. Afterwards tcpm_ prefix
   is only used for the tcpm code itself
 * fusb302: move fusb302_poll_event() to avoid forward defintion
 * fusb302: drop probe function
 * fusb302: drop unused LOG_BUFFER defines
 * roughly 20% of all lines of the series changed between v1 and v2, so
   I did not collect the Tested-by from Soeren Moch
