    Detailed description for this pull request:
    1. Split out extcon header file for consumer and provider device
    : The extcon has two type of extcon devices as following.
    - 'extcon provider deivce' adds new extcon device and detect
    the state/properties of external connector. Also, it notifies the
    state/properties to the extcon consumer device.
    - 'extcon consumer device' gets the change state/properties
    from extcon provider device.
    
    Prior to that, include/linux/extcon.h contains all exported API
    for both provider and consumer device driver. To clarify the meaning
    of header file and to remove the wrong use-case on consumer device.
    - include/linux/extcon-provider.h includes API for the provider device driver.
    - include/linux/extcon.h includes the API for the consumer device driver.
    
    2. Support the SmartDock accessory on extcon-max77843.c device driver
    - Support the SmartDock accessory which detects following connectors
     at the same time.
     : USB host throught USB hub for mouse, keyboard and so on.
     : MHL connector for video output.
     : Charger connector for battery charging.
    - It tested with Unitek Y-2165 MHL+OTG Hub Smart Phone Dock.
    
    3. Fix the minor issue of extcon driver
    - Delete the unneeded initialization in extcon-max14577.
    - Make extcon_info static const in order to fix the warning.
