A bit late but...

After reading a bit more I found that there is a miss-match between
Documentation/ABI/testing/sysfs-class-typec on one side and the actual
code and Documentation/usb/typec.rst on the other side. In the first it
looks like all attribute groups are flat under typec/ but in the code
and the other document they are instead created in a tree, e.g.:

/sys/class/typec/port0/
/sys/class/typec/port0/svid-ff01/
/sys/class/typec/port0/svid-ff01/mode0/
/sys/class/typec/port0/port0-partner/
/sys/class/typec/port0/port0-cable/
/sys/class/typec/port0/port0-cable/identity/
/sys/class/typec/port0/port0-cable/port0-plug0/
/sys/class/typec/port0/port0-cable/port0-plug1/
