[Arm-netbook] EOMA68 laptop battery management.

[Jakub Kákona]

Hi,
It looks like power schema I expect that is already been done.  But a
current design is still not fully clear to me.
I will probably print the schematics PDFs on large A3 sheets tomorrow and
try to find out how the Libre internals are interconnected currently..

Thanks
