One more comment. The datasheet for max17040 says that there is on
ALERT pin and ALERT bits in RCOMP register. Which device are you
using? If it turns out that max17040 does not support it, then the
driver and bindings should reflect this - interrupts should not be set
on max17040.


Yes you are right, max17040 have no ALERT pin. I am using max17043. Let me know what you think would be best, put a note about it in the description, add a compatibles like "maxim,max17043" and "maxim,max17044"? What do you think?
