[PATCH 6/8] rtc: isl12022: trigger battery level detection during probe

From: Rasmus Villemoes
Date: Mon Jun 12 2023 - 07:42:45 EST


Since the meaning of the SR_LBAT85 and SR_LBAT75 bits are different in
battery backup mode, they may very well be set after power on, and
stay set for up to a minute (i.e. until the battery detection in VDD
mode happens when the seconds counter hits 59). This would mean that
userspace doing a ioctl(RTC_VL_READ) early on could get a false
positive.

The battery level detection can also be triggered by explicitly
writing a 1 to the TSE bit in the BETA register. Do that once during
boot (well, probe), and emit a single warning to the kernel log if the
battery is already low.
