The recommended name for USB-Host cable state is "USB-Host" and not
"USB-HOST" as per drivers/extcon/extcon-class.c extcon_cable_name.

Change all instances of "USB-HOST" to "USB-Host".

This patch has no dependency to the rest so can be picked up as soon as possible.

Do you think it is better to go via the USB tree?
If yes then Chanwoo, can you please Ack this one? Thanks.

This would mean that only the first patch needs to go through extcon tree as Tony
will pick the rest.
Hold on. Let's first decide what we really want to go ahead with
"USB-Host" or "USB-HOST".
Currently, extcon driver have used the specific cable name(USB-Host or USB-HOST)
without any standard way. So, I have plan to define common cable name in extcon
header file by using capital letter.
OK. In that case, this patch is not required.
I will resend patch 1 with cable name corrected to "USB-HOST".
If you possbile, I want to use 'USB-HOST' cable name in drivers related to extcon.
If we use different cable name, this cause the confusion to control cable.
Kernel tree shows following users of "USB-Host" that will have to be changed to
"USB-HOST".
You're right. I'll modify all cable name of 'USB-HOST'.
Also, I have plan to use only capital letter for cable name.
extcon-class.c:	[EXTCON_USB_HOST]	= "USB-Host",
extcon-max77693.c:	[EXTCON_CABLE_USB_HOST]			= "USB-Host",
extcon-max77693.c:		extcon_set_cable_state(info->edev, "USB-Host", attached);
extcon-max8997.c:	[EXTCON_CABLE_USB_HOST]			= "USB-Host",
extcon-max8997.c:		extcon_set_cable_state(info->edev, "USB-Host", attached);
extcon-rt8973a.c:	[EXTCON_CABLE_USB_HOST]		= "USB-Host",
extcon-sm5502.c:	[EXTCON_CABLE_USB_HOST]	= "USB-Host",

I'm not aware if any user space programs depend on this name. Do you know of any?
As I knew, released samsung smart-phone used the cable name to detect the cable state
becaues extcon send the uevent with both cable name and cable state.

Thanks,
Chanwoo Choi
