Hi Hans,

This series look good to me. I added the comment
for patch4/5. If you agree following two comment, I'll merge these series for 4.11.

- patch4 uses the EXTCON_NONE when setting the previous_cable in probe()
- patch5, I don't want to use the dev_info on the fly. So, I want to drop the patch5.

Regards,
Chanwoo Choi
