This patchset alter the unused name of external connector (jig/dock/MHL) as following. The name of jig cable and dock device include the non-standard H/W information. On user-space side, this information are not necessary. The extcon core will support the other method to inform the specific H/W information to kernel device driver and framework. For example, extcon core have the plan to add the notifier chain for USB ID/VBUS pin state. If extcon consumer (kernel device driver and framework) use the notifer chain for USB ID/VBUS, they can get the state of both JIG and USB when JIG-USB-ON cable is attached.
And last patch removes the unused 'num_cables' filed on extcon-adc-jack.c. 1. jig cable name - JIG-USB-ON -->| - JIG-USB-OFF -->| - JIG-UART-ON -->| - JIG-UART-OFF -->|--> JIG 2. dock device name - Dock-Smart -->| - Dock-Desk -->| - Dock-Audio -->| - Dock-Card -->|--> DOCK 3.
