Currently the Linux kernel does not provide any standard integration of this feature that integrates the USB subsystem with the system power regulation provided by PMICs meaning that either vendors must add this in their kernels or USB gadget devices based on Linux (such as mobile phones) may not behave as they should. Thusprovide a standard framework for doing this in kernel.quoted

Now introduce one user with wm831x_power to support and test the usb charger, which is pending testing. Moreover there may be other potential users will use it in future.I am afraid I still not find the user (udc driver) for this framework, I would like to see how udc driver block the enumeration until the charger detection has finished, or am I missing something?It is not for udc driver but for power users who want to negotiate with USB subsystem.Then, where is the code the test user to decide what kinds of USB charger (SDP, CDP, DCP) is connecting now?Users can choose to implement multiple ways to get the charger type In 'usb_charger_detect_type()' function.quoted
Then, how you test your code? When we introduce an API, at least, there is one user for it.
At first I've tested the API on my board to make sure it can work well, another hand we introduce one user 'wm831x_power' to support and test the usb charger. Yes, The user 'wm831x_power' did not implement any callbacks in 'usb_charger_detect_type()' function, but in 'usb_charger_detect_type()' function it just supplies different callbacks to get the charger type with simple logic. Anyway we can try to implement one callback to get the charger type and test the API. Thanks.
