    Extcon (external connector): import Android's switch class and modify. · de55d871
    MyungJoo Ham 提交于
    External connector class (extcon) is based on and an extension of
    Android kernel's switch class located at linux/drivers/switch/.
    
    This patch provides the before-extension switch class moved to the
    location where the extcon will be located (linux/drivers/extcon/) and
    updates to handle class properly.
    
    The before-extension class, switch class of Android kernel, commits
    imported are:
    
    switch: switch class and GPIO drivers. (splitted)
    Author: Mike Lockwood <lockwood@android.com>
    
    switch: Use device_create instead of device_create_drvdata.
    Author: Arve Hjønnevåg <arve@android.com>
    
    In this patch, upon the commits of Android kernel, we have added:
    - Relocated and renamed for extcon.
    - Comments, module name, and author information are updated
    - Code clean for successing patches
    - Bugfix: enabling write access without write functions
    - Class/device/sysfs create/remove handling
    - Added comments about uevents
    - Format changes for extcon_dev_register() to have a parent dev.
