According to Documentation/ABI/testing/sysfs-class-power the "usb_type" property is Read-Only. For power-supplies which consume USB power such as battery charger chips, this is correct. But the UCS1002 USB Port Power Controller driver which is a driver for a chip which is a power-source for USB-A charging ports "usb_type" is actually writable to configure the type of USB charger emulated by the USB-A port. Adjust the docs and the power_supply_sysfs.c code to adjust for this new writeable use of "usb_type": 1. Update Documentation/ABI/testing/sysfs-class-power to document that "usb_type" may be writable 2. Change the power_supply_attr type in power_supply_sysfs.c from POWER_SUPPLY_ATTR() into POWER_SUPPLY_ENUM_ATTR() so that the various usb_type string values from POWER_SUPPLY_TYPE_TEXT[] such as e.g. "SDP" and "USB_PD" can be written to the "usb_type" attribute instead of only accepting integer values.

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 reStructuredText 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.
