Daniel Mack e5f5ccb646 power_supply: get_by_name and set_charged functionality
This adds a function that indicates that a battery is fully charged.
It also includes functions to get a power_supply device from the class
of registered devices by name reference. These can be used to find a
specific battery to call power_supply_set_battery_charged() on.

Some battery drivers might need this information to calibrate
themselves.

Andres Salomon ee8076ed3e power_supply: Add a charge_type property, and use it for olpc driver
This adds a new sysfs file called 'charge_type' which displays the
type of charging (unknown, n/a, trickle charge, or fast charging).

This allows things like battery diagnostics to determine what the
battery/EC is doing without resorting to changing the 'status' sysfs
output.

Andres Salomon b294a290d2 Revert "power: remove POWER_SUPPLY_PROP_CAPACITY_LEVEL"
This reverts commit 8efe444038 and
4cbc76eadf.

Richard@laptop.org was apparently using CAPACITY_LEVEL for debugging
battery/EC problems, and was upset that it was removed.  This readds it.

Alexey Starikovskiy 7faa144a51 ACPI: battery: add power_{now,avg} properties to power_class
ACPI has smart batteries, which work in units of energy and measure
rate of (dis)charge as power, thus it is not appropriate to export it
as a current_now. Current_now will still be exported to allow
for userland applications to match.

Matthew Garrett 942ed16194 power_supply: Add function to return system-wide power state
Certain drivers benefit from knowing whether the system is on ac or
battery, for instance when determining which backlight registers to
read. This adds a simple call to determine whether there's an online
power supply other than any batteries.

Andres Salomon 8e552c36d9 power_supply: add CHARGE_COUNTER property and olpc_battery support for it
This adds PROP_CHARGE_COUNTER to the power supply class (documenting it
as well).  The OLPC battery driver uses this for spitting out its ACR
values (in uAh).  We have some rounding errors (the data sheet claims
416.7, the math actually works out to 416.666667, so we're forced to
choose between overflows or precision loss.  I chose precision loss,
and stuck w/ data sheet values), but I don't think anyone will care
that much.

Andres Salomon 8efe444038 power: remove POWER_SUPPLY_PROP_CAPACITY_LEVEL
The CAPACITY_LEVEL stuff defines various levels of charge; however, what
is the difference between them?  What differentiates between HIGH and NORMAL,
LOW and CRITICAL, etc?

As it appears that these are fairly arbitrary, we end up making such policy
decisions in the kernel (or in hardware).  This is the sort of decision that
should be made in userspace, not in the kernel.

If the hardware does not support _CAPACITY and it cannot be easily calculated,
then perhaps the driver should register a custom CAPACITY_LEVEL attribute;
however, userspace should not become accustomed to looking for such a thing,
and we should certainly not encourage drivers to provide CAPACITY_LEVEL
stubs.

The following removes support for POWER_SUPPLY_PROP_CAPACITY_LEVEL.  The
OLPC battery driver is the only driver making use of this, so it's
removed from there as well.

Anton Vorontsov 4a11b59d82 [BATTERY] Universal power supply class (was: battery class)
This class is result of "external power" and "battery" classes merge,
as suggested by David Woodhouse. He also implemented uevent support.
