Battery charge control
----------------------
sysfs attributes:
/sys/class/power_supply/BAT*/charge_control_{start,end}_threshold
These two attributes are created for those batteries that are supported by the
driver. They enable the user to control the battery charge thresholds of the
given battery. Both values may be read and set. `charge_control_start_threshold`
accepts an integer between 0 and 99 (inclusive); this value represents a battery
percentage level, below which charging will begin. `charge_control_end_threshold`
accepts an integer between 1 and 100 (inclusive); this value represents a battery
percentage level, above which charging will stop.
The exact semantics of the attributes may be found in
Documentation/ABI/testing/sysfs-class-power.
