I don't understand the last sentence. As far as I can see
i2c_dw_pci_probe() either does not registers UCSI at all or
with the dGPU properties (and thus scope) set.

This effectively fully disables supply detection for UCSI, because
it is never set to POWER_SUPPLY_SCOPE_SYSTEM. Please fix the amdgpu
init part instead.
