SubjectRe: [PATCH 2/4] power_supply: Introduce Generic Power Supply charging driver
Hi!

...do we really need copy of documentation file in changelog?

Please be consistent. _get_battery_pro_ ?

typo "function"

here too.

Having property that does nothing sounds evil to me.

This is unclear. Charging is always disabled?

IntereSting caPitalization.

Also how do higher levels know how often to reset wdt?

Too many __s.

Pls gt sm readable identfrs.

ps_charger_context ?
