Just to convey that is_battery_full is a local function and not generic. You
can find similar usage in power_supply_core.c (__power_supply_changed_work)
and in other drivers. Isn't it advised to have __ prefixes?

The structure is part of the  battery charging profile which can be read directly
from an EEPROM or from secondary storage (emmc). So it should be packed to keep
it align with the stored format.

This is to convey that battery_type takes value as defined by
POWER_SUPPLY_TECHNOLOGY_*

Battery charging profile, may come from EEPROM/emmc which would be packed.
