[Gta04-owner] Detecting cable/discharing on USB

[Radek Polak]

Hi,
in the latest QtMoko i have added code that detects if GTA04 is plugged to USB 
and according to it, you can set suspend interval.

It's done by reading /sys/class/power_supply/twl4030_usb/status and checking 
for "Not charging" string. You can find the source here [1].

It works nice until the battery is fully charged. Then you start to get "Not 
charging" and QtMoko switches to "On Battery" mode and starts with suspending 
each 20s.

So the question. How to correctly detect On cable/On Battery? And btw after 
checking the battery charge, it was only like 70% full. I guess it would have 
completely discharged if i didnt replug the USB.

This is log from ssh:
