I think it makes sense to use a proper quirk infrastructure.
Something like this:

/* required by the spec, but missing in some implementations */
#define SBS_QUIRK_BROKEN_TTE_NOW    BIT(0)

struct sbs_quirk_entry {
    const char *manufacturer;
    const char *model;
    u32 flags;
};

static const struct sbs_quirk_entry sbs_quirks[] = {
    {"PANASON", "AP16L5J", SBS_QUIRK_BROKEN_TTE_NOW},
    {"PANASON", "AP15O5L", SBS_QUIRK_BROKEN_TTE_NOW},
    {"LGC KT0", "AP16L8J", SBS_QUIRK_BROKEN_TTE_NOW},
    ...
};

static void sbs_update_quirks(...) {
    ...
    manufacturer = sbs_get_constant_string(chip, POWER_SUPPLY_PROP_MANUFACTURER);
    model = sbs_get_constant_string(chip, POWER_SUPPLY_PROP_MODEL_NAME);

    /* reset quirks from battery before the hot-plug event */
    chip->quirks = 0;

    for (i = 0; i < ARRAY_SIZE(sbs_quirks); i++) {
        if (strcmp(manufacturer, sbs_quirks[i].manufacturer))
            continue;
        if (strcmp(model, sbs_quirks[i].model))
            continue;
        chip->quirks |= sbs_quirks[i].flags;
    }

    if (chip->quirks & SBS_QUIRK_BROKEN_TTE_NOW)
        dev_info(dev, "Added quirk disabling TIME_TO_EMPTY_NOW\n");
}

Also I think instead of removing the property, it's better to return
-ENODATA for TIME_TO_EMPTY. That will remove it from the uevent file,
but still expose the sysfs property file. So it's slightly worse from
that aspect. But it means the quirk can be handled in sbs_update_presence()
and it can be added/removed dynamically when different battery models
are used with hot-plugging.

For that it should be enough to call the above sbs_update_quirks() in
sbs_update_presence() and add this at the beginning of
sbs_get_battery_property():

if (psp == POWER_SUPPLY_PROP_TIME_TO_EMPTY_NOW &&
    chip->quirks == SBS_QUIRK_BROKEN_TTE_NOW)
    return -ENODATA;

As a side-effect it fixes your struggling with keeping the
properties constant. Can you check, if that works?

Thanks,

-- Sebastian
