>From what I gather from the different datasheets, the main difference
between them is the maximum current they are able to provide, 1.5 A for
the bq24190 and bq24192i, 3 A for bq24192 and 4.5 A for bq24193. The
default current limit is also detected differently it seems. But yeah,
those are otherwise similar enough to not require anything different in
the driver.

What would be a good way forward for that? Adding a new ti,bq2419x
compatible and switching all devices to this one, as long as they don’t
require anything specific?
