...and more crazy code :-(.

        cache.flags = bq27xxx_read(di, BQ27XXX_REG_FLAGS, has_singe_flag);
		if ((cache.flags & 0xff) == 0xff)
		                cache.flags = -1; /* read error */
				        /* WTF? bq27xxx returns -ERRNO
        on error, we mask some bits off it, and then make it -1... */
	

...and one crazy optimalization...

        if (memcmp(&di->cache, &cache, sizeof(cache)) != 0)
	                di->cache = cache;

...are we playing obfuscated C code contest, yet?

        case POWER_SUPPLY_PROP_PRESENT:
	                val->intval = di->cache.flags < 0 ? 0 : 1;

...to decidegree C?
                if (ret == 0)
		   	        pval->intval -= 2731; /* convert decidegree k to c */

as read takes enum, make it enum like this?
static inline int bq27xxx_read(struct bq27xxx_device_info *di, enum bq27xxx_reg_index reg_index,
		                         bool single)
