I noticed the following statement in typec_register_altmode():

/* The partners are bind to drivers */
if (is_typec_partner(parent))
alt->adev.dev.bus = &typec_bus;

If the condition is not met, the bus will not be set, which means bus_notify()
won't be able to take effect. Did I miss something?
Right, that would be the condition that I was talking about. Only
partner altmodes are used in the bus.
Hold on! Do you need the port altmode instead of the partner altmode?
If that's the case, then we can't use the bus notifier. So we'll need
the separate notifier chain after all.
Yes, we need port altmode. The partner altmode device appears too late for DRM
device, as it only shows up after the corresponding DP device is inserted.
Let me take a closer look at patch 2/9. Sorry about the hassle.
