As we are quite close before the merge window I just took it with
just the Ack from Greg. The changes in PHY and Extcon are quite
small. I did prepare an immutable branch in case it is needed by
any of the other involved trees:

The following changes since commit 8400291e289ee6b2bf9779ff1c83a291501f017b:

  Linux 6.11-rc1 (2024-07-28 14:19:55 -0700)

  power: supply: Change usb_types from an array into a bitmask (2024-09-03 23:20:28 +0200)

----------------------------------------------------------------
Immutable branch for usb_types change for v6.12

Changing usb_types type from array to bitmap in the power_supply_desc
struct requires updating power-supply drivers living in different
subsystem, so it is handled via an immutable branch.

----------------------------------------------------------------
Hans de Goede (6):
      power: supply: "usb_type" property may be written to
      power: supply: ucs1002: Adjust ucs1002_set_usb_type() to accept string values
      power: supply: rt9467-charger: Remove "usb_type" property write support
      power: supply: sysfs: Add power_supply_show_enum_with_available() helper
      power: supply: sysfs: Move power_supply_show_enum_with_available() up
      power: supply: Change usb_types from an array into a bitmask
