power_supply: sysfs: Bring back write to writeable properties
The fix for NULL pointer exception related to calling uevent for not finished probe caused to set all writeable properties as non-writeable. This was caused by checking if property is writeable before the initial increase of power supply usage counter and in the same time using wrapper over property_is_writeable(). The wrapper returns ENODEV if the usage counter is still 0. The call trace looked like: device probe: power_supply_register() use_cnt = 0; device_add() create sysfs entries power_supply_attr_is_visible() power_supply_property_is_writeable() if (use_cnt == 0) return -ENODEV; use_cnt++; Replace the usage of wrapper with direct call to property_is_writeable() from driver. This should be safe call during device probe because implementations of this callback just return 0/1 for different properties and they do not access any of the driver's internal data.
