Hi George,

Curious: Why can't you use extcon-gpio ?
Main reason being missing dt support.

Then why not add dt support to it ?


Also, I thought that Linux specific bindings would be unacceptable.
"ti,dra7xx-extcon" looks very linux specific to me. Did the rules change ?

Then how about "ti,extcon-usbid" ?

"extcon" seems very linux specific to me.

Anyway, not arguing, just asking, since I wondered. If the extcon maintainer
and the dt folks are happy with your driver, so am I.
