This patch removes cable array example form extcon code, to avoid
littering driver namespace. Now it's located in extcon documentation.

+Extcon - external connector
+===========================
+
+Extcon is generic framework used for notifying client drivers
+about specific cable connections and disconnections.
+
+Provider API
+============
+
+Providers API consists of very few functions:
+
+extcon_dev_register() - register new extcon provider
+extcon_dev_unregister() - unregister extcon provider
+
+extcon_get_cable_state_() - get specific cable state
+extcon_set_cable_state_() - set specific cable state
+
+extcon_update_state() - update entire extcon state
+extcon_set_state() - set entire extcon state
+
+There are few fields in struct extcon_dev to be filled before passing it
+to extcon_dev_register() functions:
+
+name - name of extcon controller
+node - devicetree node of parent device
+supported_cable - array of strings with cable names ended with NULL pointer
+
+Example of cable array definition example can be found below:
+
+ enum extcon_cable_name {
+ EXTCON_USB = 0,
+ EXTCON_USB_HOST,
+ EXTCON_TA,
+ EXTCON_FAST_CHARGER,
+ EXTCON_SLOW_CHARGER,
+ EXTCON_CHARGE_DOWNSTREAM,
+ EXTCON_HDMI,
+ EXTCON_MHL,
+ EXTCON_DVI,
+ EXTCON_VGA,
+ EXTCON_DOCK,
+ EXTCON_LINE_IN,
+ EXTCON_LINE_OUT,
+ EXTCON_MIC_IN,
+ EXTCON_HEADPHONE_OUT,
+ EXTCON_SPDIF_IN,
+ EXTCON_SPDIF_OUT,
+ EXTCON_VIDEO_IN,
+ EXTCON_VIDEO_OUT,
+ EXTCON_MECHANICAL,
+ };
+
+ const char *extcon_cable_name[] = {
+ [EXTCON_USB] = "USB",
+ [EXTCON_USB_HOST] = "USB-Host",
+ [EXTCON_TA] = "TA",
+ [EXTCON_FAST_CHARGER] = "Fast-charger",
+ [EXTCON_SLOW_CHARGER] = "Slow-charger",
+ [EXTCON_CHARGE_DOWNSTREAM] = "Charge-downstream",
+ [EXTCON_HDMI] = "HDMI",
+ [EXTCON_MHL] = "MHL",
+ [EXTCON_DVI] = "DVI",
+ [EXTCON_VGA] = "VGA",
+ [EXTCON_DOCK] = "Dock",
+ [EXTCON_LINE_IN] = "Line-in",
+ [EXTCON_LINE_OUT] = "Line-out",
+ [EXTCON_MIC_IN] = "Microphone",
+ [EXTCON_HEADPHONE_OUT] = "Headphone",
+ [EXTCON_SPDIF_IN] = "SPDIF-in",
+ [EXTCON_SPDIF_OUT] = "SPDIF-out",
+ [EXTCON_VIDEO_IN] = "Video-in",
+ [EXTCON_VIDEO_OUT] = "Video-out",
+ [EXTCON_MECHANICAL] = "Mechanical",
+ };
+
+Cable name strings are used for debug messages and sysfs.
+
+After extcon device registration you can use functions modifying extcon state.
+If any extcon clients will register their interests in some cables, they will
+recieve notifications about cable state changes.
+
+Client API
+==========
+
+Extcon client API is also pretty simple. It consists of funtions:
+
+of_extcon_get_cable_by_index() - returns extcon_cable at selected index
+of_extcon_get_cable() - returns extcon_cable associated with
+ selected name
+extcon_get_cable() - the same as above, but takes struct device
+ instead of struct device_node
+extcon_det_cable_by_name() - return specified cable form extcon device
+ found by name. It's for use in drivers without
+ devicetree support, and shouldn't be used in
+ new drivers.
+
+extcon_register_interest() - register interest in selected cable
+extcon_unregister_interest() - unregister cable interest
+
+extcon_get_cable_state() - get state of given cable
+
+The extcon_register_interest() function takes three parameters,
+struct extcon_cable, struct extcon_cable_nb and extcon_notifier_fn_t
+which is pointer to callback function called when cable state changes.
+
+There are also two functions:
+
+extcon_register_notifier() - register notifier for entire extcon state
+extcon_unregister_notifier() - unregister such notifier
+
+But they should be used only for debug, and use of them in client drivers
+is not recommended.
