Temporary workaround to prevent bq24190-battery device
from interfering with a fuel gauge that has .type=power_supply_type_battery

I'll move properties from -battery device to -charger in a subsequent version.

I thought about the transistor, which can take the battery
offline and IMHO it should be exposed as regulator.

That still leaves the health status reading, though. From
userspace's point-of-view this should be merged into the
battery device, if fuel-gauge can't provide that information.

You mean merged into the -charger device? -battery is the one we're dropping.

If you did mean -battery, could you elaborate?
