I agree. The charger-manager didn't express the h/w. IMHO, charging
framework may be included in the power_supply core such as fuel-gauge device.
Just it is my opinion.
For example, fuel-gauge device may include the connected device such as
charger device (battery charging), extcon device(detect the type of charger cable)
and rtc device (check the battery state periodically with sample rate) for battery charging.
I agree that we should handle the charger-manager binding.
But now,
this patch just removes the dependency of deprecated API of extcon.
So, I think that the issue of charger-manager binding should be handled
in other patches.

Just the name of extcon device to detect the type of charger cable.
But, extcon framekwork has the extcon_get_edev_by_phandle() to get the
instance by using the phandle in Device Tree.

I agree. we need to modify it.
