Author: Marc Lainez <marc.lainez@gmail.com>
power: supply: add Qualcomm QGauge (qcom_qg) fuel gauge driver
This commit adds a power_supply driver for the Qualcomm QGauge (QG) fuel
gauge hardware block found in SPMI PMICs such as PMI632 and PM6150.

[Severity: Medium]
Does passing temp_decidegc to power_supply_batinfo_ocv2cap() use the wrong
temperature unit?
qg_read_temperature() and the fallback value return tenths of a degree
Celsius (e.g. 250 for 25.0 degC), whereas power_supply_get_battery_info()
populates info->ocv_temp[] from ocv-capacity-celsius in whole degrees
Celsius. When multiple temperature OCV tables are defined,
power_supply_find_ocv2cap_table() compares decidegrees against degrees and
selects the wrong table.

[Severity: Medium]
Are the temperature threshold checks in qg_get_health() comparing
decidegrees against whole degrees and using the wrong sentinel values?
power_supply_get_battery_info() initializes unset info->temp_alert_min and
info->temp_min to INT_MIN and unset info->temp_alert_max and info->temp_max
to INT_MAX, and populates them from alert-celsius and
operating-range-celsius in whole degrees Celsius.
Because temp_decidegc is in tenths of a degree Celsius and unset max limits
are INT_MAX (which satisfies > 0), any room-temperature reading (e.g. 250
for 25.0 degC) is compared directly against a whole-degree limit (e.g. 45)
and falsely reports POWER_SUPPLY_HEALTH_HOT. Checking > 0 on
temp_alert_min and temp_min also ignores any cold threshold at or below
0 degC. In addition, temp_min and temp_max represent the outer operating
range (COLD/HOT) while temp_alert_min and temp_alert_max are the inner
alert thresholds (COOL/WARM), so their health states are swapped here.

[Severity: Medium]
What happens in qg_get_health() and qg_get_property() when
voltage-min-design-microvolt or voltage-max-design-microvolt is omitted from
the battery node?
power_supply_get_battery_info() initializes info->voltage_min_design_uv and
info->voltage_max_design_uv to -EINVAL. In qg_get_health(), comparing
unsigned int qg->vbat_uv against signed int info->voltage_min_design_uv
promotes -EINVAL to UINT_MAX - 21, so qg->vbat_uv <
info->voltage_min_design_uv is always true and reports
POWER_SUPPLY_HEALTH_DEAD. In qg_get_property(),
POWER_SUPPLY_PROP_VOLTAGE_MAX_DESIGN and
POWER_SUPPLY_PROP_VOLTAGE_MIN_DESIGN return 0 with val->intval = -22 instead
of returning -ENODATA when those fields are negative (unlike
POWER_SUPPLY_PROP_CHARGE_FULL_DESIGN just below).

[Severity: High]
Can qg_get_property() dereference qg->batt_info after it has been freed
during driver unbind or probe unwind?
devm_add_action_or_reset(dev, qg_batt_info_cleanup, qg) is registered on
dev after devm_power_supply_register(). Because devres releases resources
in reverse order, on driver unbind or if any of the subsequent
qg_get_optional_irq() calls fails, qg_batt_info_cleanup() frees
qg->batt_info and its ocv_table[] arrays while qg->psy is still registered
and qg->batt_info remains non-NULL. Any sysfs read or pending uevent work
flushed during power_supply_unregister() then calls qg_get_property() and
reads freed memory. Calling power_supply_get_battery_info() after
devm_power_supply_register() also leaves qg->batt_info NULL while qg->psy
is first exposed to userspace and thermal/hwmon consumers.
Note that because qg_psy_desc.type is POWER_SUPPLY_TYPE_BATTERY,
__power_supply_register() already populates psy->battery_info before
device_add() and frees it when psy->dev is unregistered, or if
qg->batt_info is kept, its cleanup action only runs safely if unregistered
after qg->psy (or if qg->batt_info is allocated on &qg->psy->dev without a
separate dev action that runs before power_supply_unregister()).
