    Extcon: support multiple states at a device. · 806d9dd7
    MyungJoo Ham authored
    One switch device (e.g., MUIC(MAX8997, MAX77686, ...), and some 30-pin
    devices) may have multiple cables attached. For example, one
    30-pin port may inhabit a USB cable, an HDMI cable, and a mic.
    Thus, one switch device requires multiple state bits each representing
    a type of cable.
    
    For such purpose, we use the 32bit state variable; thus, up to 32
    different type of cables may be defined for a switch device. The list of
    possible cables is defined by the array of cable names in the switch_dev
    struct given to the class.
