What about something like the patch below?

The platform code interface would look like

	struct power_supply *psy =
		power_support_get_by_name("ds2760.0");
	if (psy)
		power_supply_set_battery_charged(psy);

Couldn't test it yet as my hardware is missing, but I would still like
to hear your comments about it :)

commit 1a865b0023619c93de095fdb35823e57a496fc0b

    pwoer_supply: get_by_name and set_charged functionaltity
    
    This adds a function to get a power_supply device from the class of
    registered devices by name reference. It can be used to find a specific
    battery to call power_supply_set_battery_charged() on.
    
    Some battery drivers might need that information to calibrate
    themselves.
