This breaks DT ABI. Looks like charger-manager is not used in
mainline, but I guess ther should be an explicit Acked-By from
a DT binding maintainer. Also I think the defines should be in
some header includable from DTS, so that something like this
can be done:

cm-cable-id = <CHARGER_USB_DCP>;

Apart from that:
