I have just tested this by changing the MUIC compatible on my (not yet
upstreamed) samsung,coreprimevelte board from "siliconmitus,sm5504-muic" to
"siliconnitus,sm5504-muic". With this change USB no longer works, presumably
because USB probing gets deferred forever since this MUIC referenced in USB's
extcon never gets probed.

I assume this PMIC would behave identically and thus this should go to stable.
Would this be done by sending a v2 with the Cc: tag added?
