In general we have three cases: 1. We have both VBUS and ID pin detection - we can detect USB, USB-HOST and cable disconnection. 2. We have only VBUS detection - we can detect USB and cable disconnection. 3. We have ID pin only - we can distinguish between USB and USB-HOST but without ability to detect cable disconnection. > > I think only one extcon driver can support all cases with optional properties. So my driver in current form is ready for that. Only thing it would need to change is to make VBUS detection an option (for now is mandatory because all of supported Odroid boards have it). Then boards with VBUS detection only or ID pin detection only will be handled also. I can also change name of the driver to more generic. I'm going to prepare V2 on my patches today.
