[PATCH] extcon: Add EXTCON_BATTERY type for battery presence

From: andrew lien/WHQ/Wistron
Date: Mon Jan 09 2023 - 21:59:17 EST


This information can be useful to device that support battery swap,
for example allowing them to indicate that a battery is present or not,
so provide a standard way to report it to userspace.
