$patch should be phy: phy-bcm-ns2-usbdrd: USB DRD Phy driver for Broadcoms
Northstar2.

Sorry for not letting you know this earlier. But I feel the design of the
driver should be changed. Extcon shouldn't be used here. The extcon
notifications should be sent to the consumer driver and the consumer driver
should be responsible for invoking the phy ops.

The phy ops being invoked during extcon events doesn't look right.

Thanks
