Add POWER_SUPPLY_PROP_CHARGE_CONTROL_START_THRESHOLD and POWER_SUPPLY_PROP_CHARGE_CONTROL_END_THRESHOLD properties, to expand the existing CHARGE_CONTROL_* properties. I am adding them in order to support a new Chrome OS device, but these properties should be general enough that they can be used on other devices. When the charge_type is "Custom", the charge controller uses the POWER_SUPPLY_PROP_CHARGE_CONTROL_* properties as configuration for some other algorithm. For example, in the use case that I am supporting, this means the battery begins charging when the percentage level drops below POWER_SUPPLY_PROP_CHARGE_CONTROL_START_THRESHOLD and charging ceases when the percentage level goes above POWER_SUPPLY_PROP_CHARGE_CONTROL_END_THRESHOLD. v5 changes: - Add the other missing CHARGE_CONTROL_* properties documentation in a separate commit - Split up adding the charge types and adding the POWER_SUPPLY_PROP_CHARGE_CONTROL_START_THRESHOLD and POWER_SUPPLY_PROP_CHARGE_CONTROL_END_THRESHOLD properties into two different commits. v4 changes: - Add documentation for the new properties, and add documentation for the the previously missing charge_control_limit and charge_control_limit_max properties.

Linux kernel
============
There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.
In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``. The formatted documentation can also be read online at:
https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/
There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.
Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
