power-opmode is an optional property.
usb_power_delivery, as 3.0A, 1.5A or default here, only reflect the 
possible power operation mode you can set and that are understood by 
typec class:
static const char * const typec_pwr_opmodes[] = {
	[TYPEC_PWR_MODE_USB]	= "default",
	[TYPEC_PWR_MODE_1_5A]	= "1.5A",
	[TYPEC_PWR_MODE_3_0A]	= "3.0A",
	[TYPEC_PWR_MODE_PD]	= "usb_power_delivery",
};

But I guess that a Type-C controller with usb power delivery support 
won't use power-opmode property but rather source/sink-pdos.

power-opmode shows what will be advertised through CC pins. I can remove 
usb_power_delivery from the possible values, but what about the user who 
will add power-opmode property to configure his Type-C controller with 
USB power delivery support (sink and/or source by the way) ?
Should I restrict the use of power-opmode to non-USB power delivery 
Type-C controllers ?
Please advise.
