This patchset add resource-managed functions to automatically control the memory
and unregistration operation of extcon. Also, This series support new MAX77836
extcon device driver on existing MAX14577 device because existed a little
difference between MAX77836 and MAX14577. Finally, Fix minor issue of extcon
driver.
Detailed description for patchset:
1. Add resource-managed functions
- Add resource-managed functions to automatically free the memory of extcon
structure and to control unregistration behavior as following. This new devm_*
functions applied all of extcon drivers in drivers/extcon/.
: devm_extcon_dev_register/unregister()
: devm_extcon_dev_allocate/free()
: extcon_dev_allocate/free() for devm_extcon_dev_allocate/free()
2. Add new MAX77836 extcon device
- Support MAX77836 device on existing MAX14577 device driver using
different compatible string. This patchset has dependency on MFD/
Regulator/Extcon. So, Lee Jones(MFD Maintainer) created Immutable
branch between MFD and Extcon due for v3.16 merge-window and then
I merged this patchset from MFD git repo[1] to Extcon git repo.

(branch: ib-mfd-extcon-3.16)
3. Fix minor issue of extcon driver
- extcon-palmas driver
: Fix issue of extcon device name for probe
- extcon-max14577
: Fix probe failure about handling wrong return value.
: Properly Handle return value of regmap_irq_get_virq function.
- extcon-max8997/max77693 driver
: Fix NULL pointer exception on missing pdata
4. Code clean for extcon driver
- extcon-max8997/max77693
: Use power efficient workqueue for delayed cable detection
