Rob already raised this in v1. In patch 8 v3 comments below '---' I 
mentioned that the extcon phandle is still there because I don't 
understand what to do.

The devices using rt5033 I'm aware of:

- arch/arm64/boot/dts/qcom/msm8916-samsung-a2015-common.dtsi
     used by:
     - msm8916-samsung-a3u-eur.dts
     - msm8916-samsung-a5u-eur.dts
- arch/arm64/boot/dts/qcom/msm8916-samsung-e2015-common.dtsi
     used by:
     - msm8916-samsung-e5.dts
     - msm8916-samsung-e7.dts
     - msm8916-samsung-grandmax.dts
- arch/arm64/boot/dts/qcom/msm8916-samsung-serranove.dts

not yet mainlined:
- arch/arm64/boot/dts/qcom/msm8916-samsung-gprime-common.dtsi
     used by:
     - msm8916-samsung-fortuna3g.dts
     - msm8916-samsung-fortunaltezt.dts
     - msm8916-samsung-gprimeltecan.dts

They all have either an SM5502 or SM5504 MUIC (Micro-USB Interface 
Controller) chip installed. It reports the information what type of 
connector got plugged into the USB plug. An example for the devicetree 
entry can be found at the bottom of 
Documentation/devicetree/bindings/extcon/siliconmitus,sm5502-muic.yaml [1].

Documentation on the connector binding you are referring to would be the 
following, I guess: 
Documentation/devicetree/bindings/connector/usb-connector.yaml [2].

It's not clear to me what to do. To my understanding, in the devicetree 
of the device a "connector" node should be placed within the extcon/muic 
node. Like this? (Connector node at the very bottom.)

i2c-muic {
	compatible = "i2c-gpio";
	sda-gpios = <&msmgpio 105 (GPIO_ACTIVE_HIGH|GPIO_OPEN_DRAIN)>;
	scl-gpios = <&msmgpio 106 (GPIO_ACTIVE_HIGH|GPIO_OPEN_DRAIN)>;

	pinctrl-names = "default";
	pinctrl-0 = <&muic_i2c_default>;

	#address-cells = <1>;
	#size-cells = <0>;

	muic: extcon@14 {
		compatible = "siliconmitus,sm5504-muic";
		reg = <0x14>;

		interrupt-parent = <&msmgpio>;
		interrupts = <12 IRQ_TYPE_EDGE_FALLING>;

		pinctrl-names = "default";
		pinctrl-0 = <&muic_irq_default>;

		usb_con: connector {
			compatible = "usb-b-connector";
			label = "micro-USB";
			type = "micro";
		};
	};
};

And how to set up the rt5033-charger to retrieve the information of the 
extcon/muic driver in that case?

I was looking for examples but didn't find anything that helped me to 
answer that question.
