		online, and the supply allows it, then it's possible to switch
		between online states (e.g. Fixed -> Programmable for a PD_PPS
		USB supply so voltage and current can be controlled).

Date:		May 2010
KernelVersion:	2.6.35
Contact:	Daniel Mack <daniel@caiaq.de>
Description:
		This file is writeable and can be used to set the current
		coloumb counter value inside the battery monitor chip. This
		is needed for unavoidable corrections of aging batteries.
		A userspace daemon can monitor the battery charging logic
		and once the counter drops out of considerable bounds, take
		appropriate action.

Description:
		This file is writeable and can be used to set the assumed
		battery 'full level'. As batteries age, this value has to be
		amended over time.

Description:
		This entry shows and sets the maximum time the max14577
		charger operates in fast-charge mode. When the timer expires
		the device will terminate fast-charge mode (charging current
		will drop to 0 A) and will trigger interrupt.

KernelVersion:	4.4.0
Contact:	Andreas Dannenberg <dannenberg@ti.com>
Description:
		This entry configures the input dynamic power path management voltage of
		bq24257-type charger devices. Once the supply drops to the configured
		voltage, the input current limit is reduced down to prevent the further
		drop of the supply. When the IC enters this mode, the charge current is
		lower than the set value. See device datasheet for details.

Description:
		This entry allows enabling the high-impedance mode of bq24257-type

Description:
		This entry allows enabling the sysoff mode of bq24257-type charger
		devices. If enabled and the input is removed, the internal battery FET
		is turned off in order to reduce the leakage from the BAT pin to less
		than 1uA. Note that on some devices/systems this disconnects the battery
		from the system. See device datasheet for details.
