The battery charger needs to have control path along
with the reporting charger properties. In existing solutions
this is implemented using regulator framework. A regulator
framework doesn't fit a charger driver requirement because of the
following reason
Charger needs support two paths - charger path (charger to platform)
and charging (charger to battery).Disabling the charging path alone
(eg over battery temperature) will allow the platform to work with
power from charger without discharging the battery. And the charger
may need to be disabled completely based on the charger temperature
or the platform temperature.
Charger has more than one pair of voltage/current to control (CC,CV,INLMT)
These features will not directly fit in the regulator framework

Since the charger driver sits in the power supply subsystem it make sense
to add the properties to control the charger.
