Currently the Linux kernel does not provide any standard integration of this feature that integrates the USB subsystem with the system power regulation provided by PMICs meaning that either vendors must add this in their kernels or USB gadget devices based on Linux (such as mobile phones) may not behave as they should. Thus provide a standard framework for doing this in kernel.
Now introduce one user with wm831x_power to support and test the usb charger, which is pending testing. Moreover there may be other potential users will use it in future. Changes since v12: - Remove the class and device things. - Link usb charger to udc-core.ko. - Create one "charger" subdirectory which holds all charger-related attributes. Changes since v11: - Reviewed and tested by Li Jun. Changes since v10: - Introduce usb_charger_get_state() function to check charger state. - Remove the mutex lock in usb_charger_set_cur_limit_by_type() function in case will be issued in atomic context.
