pm8916 contains some hardware blocks for battery powered devices:

- VM-BMS: Battery voltage monitoring block.
- LBC: Linear battery charger.

Add them to the pmic dtsi so the devices that make use of those blocks
can enable them.

So, both the charger and the USBIN driver use the same irq? :/


AFAIU the usbin extcon driver pretty much just tracks the state
of the IRQ to report extcon. It happens to assume the same part
of the pmic though, yes, which also means there will be no user
that would enable both charger and vbus extcon, since charger
driver provides this functionality as well.
So, should USBIN be removed from PM8916 dt since it's essentially
a part of the charger block?


The "USB_IN" pad of the PM8916 seems to be connected on pretty much all
devices, even if they are using external chargers and the charging
functionality of PM8916 is completely disabled. For those devices, the
&pm8916_usbin device provides a convenient way to detect the USB state,
even without a working charger driver.

While we could modify the PM8916 charger driver and DT node to have some
special mode where charging and battery monitoring is completely
disabled and only the USBIN extcon is provided, I'm not sure if that
would provide a significant advantage compared to just keeping the
simple &pm8916_usbin node with the existing driver.
Hmm okay I see..

Generally it's rather "no bueno" to have two DT nodes consuming the
same register space.. What happens when you enable BMS on a device
with a non-PM8916 charger? Does it correctly recognize "no battery"
etc.?
