Reset kicked the charger back into the charging mode:

root at n900:/sys/class/power_supply/bq24150a-0# echo reset > mode
root at n900:/sys/class/power_supply/bq24150a-0# cat mode
auto (host)
root at n900:/sys/class/power_supply/bq24150a-0#

Battery  4.017 V  4.037 V  81 %  0 %  0 / 0 / 2056 mAh  Charging -109.42 / 650 / 500  mA
Battery  4.017 V  4.039 V  81 %  0 %  0 / 0 / 2056 mAh  Charging -103.173 / 650 / 500  mA

...and discharge current reduced. I tried adjusting current limit, but
it still discharges at 100mA (with screen on).

USB extension cable was probably part of a problem. It works better
with n900 plugged in directly into the PC.

(But it still will not terminate the charge:
