From c3788cd9963eb2e77de3c24142fb7c67b61f1a26 Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Heikki Krogerus Date: Wed, 12 Dec 2018 20:13:55 +0300 Subject: usb: roles: Add a description for the class to Kconfig That makes the USB role switch support option visible and selectable for the user. The class driver is also moved to drivers/usb/roles/ directory. This will fix an issue that we have with the Intel USB role switch driver on systems that don't have USB Type-C connectors: Intel USB role switch driver depends on the USB role switch class as it should, but since there was no way for the user to enable the USB role switch class, there was also no way to select that driver. USB Type-C drivers select the USB role switch class which makes the Intel USB role switch driver available and therefore hides the problem. So in practice Intel USB role switch driver was depending on USB Type-C drivers.
