Notify core through power_supply_changed() in case of changes in state
of charge. This is useful for user-space to efficiently update current
battery level.

chip->soc could be negative ERRNO so in such case I think user-space
should not be notified.

You should also notify on online and status change (e.g. started
charging). User-space also wants to know that, e.g. to show the
charging icon or battery health status.
