Unfortunately, all those codes are only for cm_notify_event(). Currently, and
since charger-manager has been introduced then, there's no one to use it. And
the works of cm_notify_event() are is just notifying the event to user space or
reset the polling work. We may need passive method to get event related with
battery status externally, if so we can use power_supply class notification
method, power_supply_notifier.

I decided to remove it to make driver simple and clean.

Thanks,
