Good to know! Look forward to seeing it once it's ready.

I've access to the current R2.0 draft as well, and it looks like there's
gonna be a bit of work to update this driver to support it.  The big
standout is the data structure format change to accommodate much larger
payloads.  So I guess that bridge will be constructed when we get there,
both for 2.0 and later for EPR.

Sounds good to me FWIW.  Plus this will even avoid unnecessarily
bloating TCPM's internal {source,sink}_caps and {src,snk}_pdo arrays
(an additional 96 bytes) prematurely before that driver is ready to be
updated to handle EPR with all the new messages and states needed.

Thanks,
Jack
