[PATCH v3 0/3] Introduce usb charger framework to deal with the usb gadget power negotation

[Baolin Wang <baolin.wang@linaro.org>]

Currently the Linux kernel does not provide any standard integration of this
feature that integrates the USB subsystem with the system power regulation
provided by PMICs meaning that either vendors must add this in their kernels
or USB gadget devices based on Linux (such as mobile phones) may not behave
as they should.

Providing a standard framework for doing this in the kernel.

Now introduce one user with wm831x_power to support and test the usb charger,
which is pending testing. Moreover there may be other potential users will use
it in future.

Changes since v2:
 - Use macro DEVICE_ATTR_RW()/ATTRIBUTE_GROUPS() and change the method to
   register the attruibutes.
 - Remove the 'name' and 'entry' member of struct 'usb_charger'.
 - Replace devm_kzalloc() with kzalloc() to follow the the lifetime rules.
 - Other modifications.
