Subject: [PATCH] power: supply: sbs-battery: don't assume i2c errors as battery disconnect

Current sbs-battery considers all smbus errors as diconnection events
when battery-detect pin isn't supplied, and restored to present state back
on any successful transaction were made.

This can leads to unlimited state changes between present and !present
when one unsupported command was requested and other following commands
were successful, e.g. udev rules tries to read multiple properties.

This patch checks battery presence by reading well-known register to
check battery existence.
