Thanks Mika for the pointers. I have looked at the documentation. we already have i2c driver for battery monitoring but the chip needs initialized with characterization data. We wanted to populate/pass this data through ACPI table to the i2c slave driver. How can I do that? Can I pass characterization data through ACPI table to the i2c slave device?
