Sleeping in atomic context happens because:
1. Extcon is notifying with raw notifier chain under spin lock.
2. Notified charger-manager calls sleeping functions.
Actually the problem is not only charger-manager specific because
the extcon is also exporting as API its raw notifier chain with
extcon_register_notifier(). User registers its own notifier which may or
may not sleep but extcon requires non-sleeping behavior.
Solve the problem in a generic way: notify on cable change not directly
in extcon_update_state(), but from scheduled work on ordered workqueue.
Details on issue (steps to reproduce):
======================================

The first sleeping function is is_ext_pwr_online()
(drivers/power/charger-manager.c). The atomic context initiating the
flow is set up in extcon_update_state() (drivers/extcon/extcon-class.c).

Changes since v1:
1. Re-work after discussions MyungJoo Ham. Don't change spin locks into
mutexes but completely move raw_notifier_call_chain out of atomic
context.
2. Mark cc-stable.
