[PATCH 1/2] thunderbolt: Read DROM directly from NVM before trying bit banging

From: Mario Limonciello
Date: Tue Feb 14 2023 - 10:47:23 EST


Some TBT3 devices have a hard time reliably responding to bit banging
requests correctly when connected to AMD USB4 hosts running Linux.

These problems are not reported in any other CM, and comparing the
implementations the Linux CM is the only one that utilizes bit banging
to access the DROM. Other CM implementations access the DROM directly
from the NVM instead of bit banging.

Adjust the flow to try this on TBT3 devices before resorting to bit
banging.
