I had a quick overview over Jenny's patchset [0] (the patch you
referenced is part of a bigger patchset). I don't think the
scenario found in the Nokia N900 is covered by it, but probably
now is the time to change it :)

So for everybody new to this thread:

Multiple chips are involved in the charging of the Nokia N900
battery:

bq27200: This chip is used for reading battery status. AFAIK
it's not directly involved in charging the battery.
bq24150a: This chip takes care of actually charging the battery.
It has no clue about USB related stuff. The maximum
current it draws can be configured, though.
isp1704: USB charger detector. This chip is used to detect how
much current may be used by the bq24150a chip.
rx51-temp: Analog temperature sensor for the battery, which is
connected via an analog-digital-converter.

The question is how to connected these driver with each other
if device tree is used to boot the system. Any suggestions?
