    power: supply: twl4030-charger: don't check if battery is present · 19a2ee69

    We can't assume that the battery is or stays present after probing
    on devices with replaceable battery.
    
    On some devices (e.g. GTA04 or OpenPanodra) it can be removed
    and even be hot swapped by the user while device continues to operate
    through external AC or USB power (as long as system power consumption
    remains below ca. 500mA as provided by USB). Under certain conditions
    it is possible to boot without battery.
    
    So it makes no sense to check for this situation during probe and make
    the charger driver (and its status reports) completely non-operational if
    the battery can be inserted later.
    
    Tested on: GTA04 and OpenPandora.
