I'm missing a bit of context. I suppose this is about connecting a
non-genuine power adapter rejected by the embedded controller?
Support for that should be hooked into 'drivers/acpi/ac.c' (note:
so far there is no standard power-supply class property for this).
Also printing a warning to dmesg seems sensible.
