Historically we listened to /sys/class/poewr_supply inotify events, which does not seem to work anymore. We switched now to udev netlink kernel events.

So it seems, that the udev kernel events are sent very early. The battery status "Charging" might return just a bit later from the When implementing some |

I will aid implementing this, because I'm new to this project.
I will try to make this code look more like the backlight_backend, which also uses the udev netlink interfaces.
