[PATCH 0/2] power: supply: qcom_battmgr: improve charge control threshold handling

[Val Packett]

Currently, upowerd is unable to turn off the battery preservation mode[1]
on Qualcomm laptops, because it does that by setting the start threshold to
zero and the driver returns an error:

pmic_glink.power-supply.0: charge control start threshold exceed range: [50 - 95]

Kernel documentation says the end threshold must be clamped[2] but does
not say anything about the start threshold.

In this proposal I've special-cased start==0 to actually disable the
functionality via the enable bit, and otherwise made both start and
end thresholds be clamped to the acceptable range. Hopefully that's
fine? Or should the [1 - 49] range for start actually be rejected?
