I don't see how the parameters are changed when update_charger is true.

Are you intending to do it at userspace after getting uevent_notify()? (I don't think it's good)

If the intension is to update some of the charger-manager internal parameters (struct charger_manager's struct charger_desc) according to the temperature, we'd need a more general method that can also update values in the charger-manager context.

For example, instead of simply putting a callback to determine whether an update is required or not, a table of (including hysterisis) temperatures and values to be updated (or callbacks to update charger_desc based on the temperature) might be a starting point. You may also need to consider using notifier chain w/ temperatures.

Cheers!
