This is a firmware bug. The interface on this system is returning more
than the maximum of 12 bytes to the UCSI command GET_ALTERNATE_MODES.
You guys need to be reporte this to Lenovo.
I should point out that the driver in Linux requests only a single
alternate mode with the GET_ALTERNATE_MODE command by leaving the
"Number of Alternate Modes" to 0 (the actual number of alternate modes
is the value of that field plus 1 - Table 6-24: GET_ALTERNATE_MODES
Command in UCSI specification). That means the interface should only
return 6 bytes (that's the size of a single alt mode description in
UCSI).
