H A Dsysfs-class-power-twl40307f4a633d Wed Jul 29 19:11:24 CDT 2015 NeilBrown <neil@brown.name> twl4030_charger: add software controlled linear charging mode.

Add a 'continuous' option for usb charging which enables
the "linear" charging mode of the twl4030.

Linear charging does a good job with not-so-reliable power sources.
Auto mode does not work well as it switches off when voltage drops
momentarily. Care must be taken not to over-charge.

It was used with a bike hub dynamo since a year or so. In that case
there are automatically charging stops when the cyclist needs a break.
