Subject: [PATCH] platform/x86: asus-wmi: temporarily revert to setting a charge limit
Date: Tue, 30 Jun 2026 23:09:40 +0000	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <20260630230940.612532-1-denis.benato@linux.dev> (raw)

A userspace regression has been observed leaving the battery charging
threshold unconfigured, so while the situation is being sorted revert
the change keeping the infrastructure in place to return to the
preferred behaviour whenever possible.

Link: https://gitlab.freedesktop.org/upower/upower/-/work_items/347
Closes: https://lore.kernel.org/all/CABsFS_g+V_Owum6knLhenhM15EXJRrsF0FcLiw30WZxarsTpUA@mail.gmail.com/
