My devicetree:

usb_otg: usb@13440000 {
	compatible = "ingenic,jz4770-musb", "simple-mfd";
	reg = <0x13440000 0x10000>;
	[...]

	usb-role-switch;

	connector {
		compatible = "gpio-usb-b-connector", "usb-b-connector";
		label = "mini-USB";
		type = "mini";

		id-gpios = <&gpf 18 GPIO_ACTIVE_HIGH>;
		vbus-gpios = <&gpb 5 GPIO_ACTIVE_HIGH>;
		[...]
	};

	usb_charger: usb-charger {
		compatible = "usb-charger";
	};
};

The new gpio-usb-connector driver uses the ID/VBUS GPIOs to detect in 
which state (device, host, unconnected) a OTG connector is. However, 
that means I cannot use the standard gpio-charger driver to detect the 
presence of a charger based on the state of the VBUS gpio, since it's 
already requested here. So the point of this patchset is to provide an 
alternative to gpio-charger that works with OTG controllers compatible 
with 'usb-role-switch'.

Cheers,
-Paul
