The bq2425x devices support charging with a configurable charge current
i_chg or a specific fixed low-current in what's called Low Charge mode.
This patch exposes access to the Low Charge mode through a POWER_
SUPPLY_PROP_CHARGE_TYPE sysfs property value of POWER_SUPPLY_CHARGE_
TYPE_TRICKLE. It also allows to completely disable charging if desired
by setting the property to POWER_SUPPLY_CHARGE_TYPE_NONE. Normal
charging with the configured i_chg current is activated through
POWER_SUPPLY_CHARGE_TYPE_FAST (default).

I have some questions here. Are there any cases in the wild, when
userspace selects the charging type (apart from testing purposes)? And
if yes, how is userspace supposed to detect/decide when to switch from
trickle to fast?

I have the strange feeling that we're adding properties that will never
be used... Other people's opinions are welcomed too.

Hi Laurentiu. I just talked to our product people to see as to how the
underlying LOW_CHG feature would be used and they essentially said its a
legacy feature used by only one customer in the past and that it doesn't
need to get exposed in our driver. I had initially implemented it in
analogy with the bq24190_charger.c driver that exposes a somewhat
similar feature but if nobody needs it from a TI point of view I'm ok
dropping it. Unless somebody screams they want it :)

Regards,
