The examples were correct for the existing binding. What you did
is completly changing the binding description (without modifying
the code) resulting in examples and any existing users being
incorrect and code not matching up with the binding.

monitored-battery is not a valid property of simple-battery node
(the one having compatible = "simple-battery"). It needs to be
listed in the binding _using_ simple-battery (which you did in
the bq2515x binding). Drop it.

This looks ok.

This is a single property ("resistance-temp-table") describing
a graph with temperature on one axis and battery internal resistance
on the other axis. The first cell is temperature in degree Celsius
and the second cell is internal resistance percentage. So old
example

resistance-temp-table = <20 100>, <10 90>, <0 80>, <(-10) 60>;

translates into

20° => 100% of "factory-internal-resistance-micro-ohms"
10° => 90% of "factory-internal-resistance-micro-ohms"

This is also incorrect. This is a single property ("ocv-capacity-celsius"),
which is the lookup table for "^ocv-capacity-table-[0-100]$". It maps
ocv-capacity tables to temperatures. Let me use the example from the
old *.txt binding again:

ocv-capacity-celsius = <(-10) 0 10>;
ocv-capacity-table-0 = <4185000 100>, <4113000 95>, <4066000 90>, ...;
ocv-capacity-table-1 = <4200000 100>, <4185000 95>, <4113000 90>, ...;
ocv-capacity-table-2 = <4250000 100>, <4200000 95>, <4185000 90>, ...;

-10 degree Celsius is index 0, so ocv-capacity-table-0 should be
used for -10 degrees Celsius.

0 degrees Celsius is index 1, so ocv-capacity-table-1 should
be used for this temperature.

10 degrees Celsius is index 2, so ocv-capacity-table-2
should be used for this temperature.
