Hello,

I received the reply from you after too long time (17~18day).
You better to reply it more a little more quickly
if you have the question or new patches.

What is meaning of 'enable-gpio' property?
You better to explain your goal about 'enable-gpio' property

Also, If you think that it is generic way about
adding 'enable-gpio' property to extcon-usb-gpio.c,
you can try it.
