i am replacing the proc interface with the sysfs entries
also removing the unnecessary parameters. i am adding the
following parameters as sysfs entries

1. glitch filter read and write parameter
2. alarm status read parameter
3. alarm mode read parameter
4. trickle charger read parameter

and i am removing the proc interface. 

is the above implementation ok as per your last comment
on the proc interface. please provide the feedback.

Thanks and regards
Raghavendra Chandra Ganiga

 That's sounds like a plan. Please send the code when you're ready.
