The axp209 usb-power-supply has just been merged into
linux-power-supply/next so even better we can simply update axp209.dtsi
with the node, and add do the right thing in the CHIP dts right away.

I'll send out all the dts patches which I've had queued up waiting
for this driver to get merged, including the axp209.dtsi changes.
