The change itself is justified, the "justification" in the message might
need some rework, as this sounds more like a kernel-side issue,
while the extcon should always be optional.

Something like:

The extcon property is used to detect the cable-state but some boards
just connect the type-c phy to a regular USB-A connector without any
power-delivery and thus no controller reporting the cable-state.
So the extcon property is not really a required property, move it to be 
optional instead.


For the change itself:
