Hi Jiri,

I've been investigating a bit about this issue and I think this might not be the
righ solution for the problem.

John Chen's patch (9de07a4e8d4cb269f9876b2ffa282b5ffd09e05b):
https://lore.kernel.org/lkml/20210327130508.24849-5-johnchen902@xxxxxxxxx/

Already adds battery reporting over bluetooth, so my patch is redundant... And worse
than his, I should add.

I was investigating how to do something similar over USB, but I couldn't finish a patch yet.

So, if you don't mind, I'd prefer not to apply this patchset yet until I figure out
a better solution on v3.

Thanks,
Jose
