[PATCH v9 2/4] pm: add to_power_supply macro to the API

[Ognjen Galic]

This patch adds the to_power_supply macro to upcast
a device to a power_supply struct.

This is needed because the same piece of code using
container_of is used in various other places, so we
abstract away such low-level operations via a macro.

v9:
* Split the pm changes from the thinkpad_acpi patch
into its own patch
