My initial thought was to keep these details hide from CM.

No, we will do it from driver only.

Yes I agree, I will submit another patch with these changes.

As part of charge enablement we generally program charge current, charge voltage
into the charger chip.

We can pass the charging parameters CC and CV in two ways.
1. Add these params in charger_desc struct and the  charger regulator can get these
params using container_of() call? but becomes complex.

2. use regulator_set_voltage()/regulator_set_current_limit() functions to set the CV and CC params.
but not suitable as is, we have add support in regulator framework

3. use regulator_get_drvdata()/regulator_set_drvdata() to set CC & CV params. These functions
allow us to add more params in future if required.

I am thinking of using option 3.

Let me know your feedback.

Thanks,
Ram
