It only uses the USB PHY subsystem, which already has some half-baked
 support for chargers but not bound to the power-supply subsystem.

I understand that the usb-connector binding is better, but the current code doesn't integrate at all with the USB PHY subsystem, which has its
 own code to handle ID and VBUS GPIOs and supports notifiers. Is that
 deprecated then?

 What's the big picture here?

Does this series work for you?:

https://patchwork.kernel.org/cover/11120707/

I had to do some changes to my musb and PHY drivers but it works, yes.

The good thing is that I didn't have to change this driver, so I'll wait for feedback on patch 2/2 then post a v2 with a fixed devicetree example.

Thanks,
