[PATCH] power_supply: sysfs: Bring back write to writeable properties

[Krzysztof Kozlowski <k.kozlowski@samsung.com>]

The fix for NULL pointer exception related to calling uevent for not
finished probe caused to set all writeable properties as non-writeable.
This was caused by checking if property is writeable before the initial
increase of power supply usage counter and in the same time using
wrapper over property_is_writeable(). The wrapper returns ENODEV if the
usage counter is still 0.

The call trace looked like:
  device probe:
    power_supply_register()
      use_cnt = 0;
      device_add()
        create sysfs entries
          power_supply_attr_is_visible()
            power_supply_property_is_writeable()
              if (use_cnt == 0) return -ENODEV;
      use_cnt++;

Replace the usage of wrapper with direct call to property_is_writeable()
from driver. This should be safe call during device probe because
implementations of this callback just return 0/1 for different
properties and they do not access any of the driver's internal data.
