Prashant Malani ddaf8d96f9 usb: typec: Add support for retimers
Introduce a retimer device class and associated functions that register
and use retimer "switch" devices. These operate in a manner similar to
the "mode-switch" and help configure retimers that exist between the
Type-C connector and host controller(s).

Type C ports can be linked to retimers using firmware node device
references (again, in a manner similar to "mode-switch").

There are no new sysfs files being created; there is the new retimer
class directory, but there are no class-specific files being created
there.

Linux kernel
============

There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.

In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``.  The formatted documentation can also be read online at:

    https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/

There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.

Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
