[RFC PATCH v2 0/5] Support ROHM BD99954 charger IC

[Matti Vaittinen <matti.vaittinen@fi.rohmeurope.com>]

Support ROHM BD99954 Battery Management IC

ROHM BD99954 is a Battery Management IC for 1-4 cell Lithium-Ion
secondary battery. BD99954 is intended to be used in space-constraint
equipment such as Low profile Notebook PC, Tablets and other
applications.

Series introduces "linear ranges" helper intended to help converting
real-world values to register values when conversion is linear. This
version just meld the helpers in power/supply. Idea is stolen from
regulator framework's linear-ranges handling.

This version of series introduces new battry DT binding entries and
adds the parsing in power_supply_get_battery_info(). These properties
can be converted to ROHM specific properties and parsing can be moved
to the BD99954 driver if this does not seem like a right thing to do.
I just have a feeling the the BD99954 is not the only charger which
could utilize these.

We also add ROHM specific charger parameters for limiting the input
current(s). I think these parameters are pretty common and maybe the
"rohm,"-prefix should be dropped and we should try having common
input limiting properties for different chips?

Series is based on v5.5-rc7

Changelog RFC-v2:
 DT-bindings:
   - Used the battery parameters described in battery.txt
   - Added few new parameters to battery.txt
   - Added ASCII art charging profile chart for BD99954 to explain
     states and limits.
 Linear ranges:
   - Fixed division by zero error from linear-ranges code if step 0 is
     used.
 Power-supply core:
   - Added parsing of new battery parameters.
 BD99954 driver:
   - converted to use battery parameters from battery node
   - Added step 0 ranges for reg values which do not change voltage
   - added dt-node to psy-config

	DT binding docs for the new battery parameters
Patch 2:
	BD99954 charger DT binding docs
Patch 3:
	Linear ranges helpers
Patch 4:
	Parsing of new battery parameters
