[PATCH v3 1/5] power: supply: correct capacity computation

From: Thomas Antoine <t.antoine at uclouvain.be>

>From the datasheet of the MAX17201/17205, the LSB should be
"5.0μVh/RSENSE". The current computation sets it at 0.5mAh=5.0μVh/10mOhm
which does not take into account the value of rsense which can be
different from 10mOhm.

Change the computation to fit the specs.
