NeilBrown b04b908d8a twl4030_charger: add ac/mode to match usb/mode
This allows AC charging to be turned off, much like usb charging.
"continuous" mode is not available though.

NeilBrown 7f4a633d21 twl4030_charger: add software controlled linear charging mode.
Add a 'continuous' option for usb charging which enables
the "linear" charging mode of the twl4030.

Linear charging does a good job with not-so-reliable power sources.
Auto mode does not work well as it switches off when voltage drops
momentarily.  Care must be taken not to over-charge.

It was used with a bike hub dynamo since a year or so. In that case
there are automatically charging stops when the cyclist needs a break.

NeilBrown 22d4c33f73 twl4030_charger: enable manual enable/disable of usb charging.
'off' or 'auto' to

 /sys/class/power/twl4030_usb/mode

will now enable or disable charging from USB port.  Normally this is
enabled on 'plug' and disabled on 'unplug'.
Unplug will still disable charging.  'plug' will only enable it if
'auto' if selected.

NeilBrown aca3c35463 twl4030_charger: allow max_current to be managed via sysfs.
'max_current' sysfs attributes are created which allow the
max to be set.
Whenever a current source changes, the default is restored.
This will be followed by a uevent, so user-space can decide to
update again.
