Extcon: support notification based on the state changes.
State changes of extcon devices have been notified via kobjet_uevent. This patch adds notifier interfaces in order to allow device drivers to get notified easily. Along with notifier interface, extcon_get_extcon_dev() function is added so that device drivers may discover a extcon_dev easily.
