I can confirm the bit fields are correct for these calls (as for the
previous patch)

Couple of things to note, based on feedback previously from the FW team
that I found when digging thru my battery related emails.

"Lenovo doesn't officially support the use of these calls - they're
intended for internal use" (at this point in time - there is some
discussion about battery recalibration support but I don't have details
I can share there yet).

The FW team also noted that:

"Actual battery charging/discharging behaviors are managed by ECFW. So
the request of BDSS/BICS method may be rejected by ECFW for the current
battery mode/status. You have to check if the request of the method is
actually applied or not"

So for the calls above (and for the BDSS calls in the previous patch) it
would be good to do a read back of the setting to ensure it has
completed successfully.

Hope that helps
Mark
