This will break the usecase of powering Pinephone from USB without a battery
present (or fully discharged).

The phone can require more than 500mA before USB power supply detection manages
to run and sets the higher limit. Linux should keep the limit set by the
bootloader until it figures out something better based on BC 1.2 or USB-PD.

You should only change the limit as the result of negotiation.

Kind regards,
	o.
