Hi heikki, ANX7411 PD controller has 2 applications, the one has embeded
internal firmware, the other is not have. The currently upstream patch
is for the first way, driver mustn't use TCPCI framework(embeded firmware
will control all the TCPCI register). The second way(erased internaly
firmware) can work under TCPCI framework.

Thanks,
Xin
