Subject: [PATCH] extcon: axp288: fix link error

With CONFIG_AXP288=y and CONFIG_USB_COMMON=n there is the following link
error:

drivers/extcon/extcon-axp288.o: In function `axp288_put_role_sw':
extcon-axp288.c:(.text+0xa0): undefined reference to `usb_role_switch_put'
drivers/extcon/extcon-axp288.o: In function `axp288_usb_role_work':
extcon-axp288.c:(.text+0xec): undefined reference to `usb_role_switch_get_role'
extcon-axp288.c:(.text+0x12c): undefined reference to `usb_role_switch_set_role'
drivers/extcon/extcon-axp288.o: In function `axp288_extcon_probe':
extcon-axp288.c:(.text+0x59d): undefined reference to `usb_role_switch_get'

The above functions are defined in drivers/usb/common/roles.c, but the build
system only enters the common directory depending on CONFIG_USB_COMMON. Fix
this by selecting the USB_COMMON symbol.

Hi,

there is another solution for this problem: replace depends on USB_SUPPORT
with depends on USB, but since CONFIG_USB selects other symbols I went 
with the minimal fix and select the USB_COMMON symbol.
