right, but that's not how this is being used. IMHO, rx_work is a
misnomer. If you look at how typec_wcove (patch 2 in this series) uses
it, you'll see that pd_sink_queue_msg() is called to queue a reply to a
message that was *already* received. We can't have two replies, right?

In any case, this is a minor problem.
