usb: typec: tcpm: print error on hard reset
A USB-C hard reset involves removing the voltage from VBUS for some time. So basically it has the same effect as removing the USB-C plug for a short moment. If the machine is powered from the USB-C port and does not have a fallback supply (e.g. a battery), this will result in a full machine reset due to power loss. Ideally we want to avoid triggering a hard reset on these boards. A non-working USB-C port is probably better than unplanned reboots. But boards with a backup supply should do the hard reset to get everything working again. In theory it would be enough to check the self_powered property, but it seems the property might not be configured consistently enough in system firmwares. So let's start with just printing an error message when a hard reset is triggered on systems we expect to be affected. This at least makes debugging issues on affected systems easier without impacting unaffected systems too much. Signed-off-by:Sebastian Reichel <sebastian.reichel@collabora.com> Reviewed-by:
