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 USB charger support in USB phy core for doing this in kernel. Now introduce one user with wm831x_power to support and test the usb charger. In future we will also cnvert below power drivers: drivers/power/supply/axp288_charger.c drivers/power/supply/bq24190_charger.c drivers/power/supply/charger-manager.c drivers/power/supply/qcom_smbb.c Changes since v4: - Change the phandle name from 'usb-phy' to 'phys' for wm831x_power driver. Changes since v3: - Bail out errors when failed to find usb phy for wm831x_power driver. Changes since v2: - Add DT binding documentation for wm831x_power driver. - Change 'usb-phy' as one optional property for wm831x_power driver. Changes since v1: - Fix building errors.
