+Devicetree battery characteristics
+~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
+Drivers should call power_supply_get_battery_info() to obtain battery
+characteristics from a devicetree battery node, defined in
+Documentation/devicetree/bindings/power/supply/battery.txt. This is
+implemented in drivers/power/supply/bq27xxx_battery.c.
+
+Properties in struct power_supply_battery_info and their counterparts in the
+battery node have names corresponding to elements in enum power_supply_property,
+for naming consistency between sysfs attributes and battery node properties.
