These names do not match the five interrupts in the example or in the
code. When you provide an "interrupt-names" property you have to define
the exact strings that are permissible for them in the binding.

I probably don't understand enough of this, but shouldn't the other devices
that are supplied by this have a reference to this node rather than doing
it this way around? Why use strings here instead of phandles?

You are also not listing some of the properties that are in the device
tree here, like the "interrupts" property itself.

Didn't we conclude that this file has no board-specific information in it?
Either explain why it's still here, or move it into the driver itself.

I think I mentioned before that you need to get rid of the
CONFIG_AB8500_9100_LI_ION_BATTERY symbol. If you have exclusive
compile-time options, it is impossible to build a kernel that
runs on all system, so this has to be a run-time option.
