Because of UCSI, we have to support alt mode enter/exit reporting even when there is no alt mode driver bind to the alt mode device. With UCSI a firmware handles the alternate modes, and the modes are entered automatically from OS PoW. Changing typec_altmode_update_active() so that the driver module ref count is incremented/decremented only if there really is a driver for the alt mode. That avoids a NULL pointer dereference from happening when the driver is missing.

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 Restructured Text 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.
