And this is because there is no working charger detection in the driver,
so initial current limit is hard-coded to 500mA.
I was on it, but had to suspend, partially because of
https://lore.kernel.org/lkml/1668430562-27114-1-git-send-email-ivo.g.dimitrov.75@gmail.com/#r
, which I will have to fix by other means.
OTOH, I have cpcap-extcon driver around which does charger detection and
sends the appropriate events, along with cpcap-charger patches that
properly limit the charger current, however, until the issue in charger
framework is fixed those are of no use.
Didn't have enough spare time lately to resume the work :(

We can't charge to 4.35 without knowing the type of the battery,
unfortunately
https://lore.kernel.org/all/1667332425-12536-1-git-send-email-ivo.g.dimitrov.75@gmail.com/T/#t
didn't make it, for reasons unknown to me.
Yes, we have that in leste kernel, but I am getting sick of supporting
out-of-tree patches, so I don't really want to build userspace on kernel
features that are not upstream, if possible.
Also, some guys have concerns about charging (and keeping it charged)
@4.35, because of the possibly reduced battery life.

What will happen if phone needs to draw more than N mA (N is the set
charger current limit)?
