The files in sysfs are created during device_add(). psy->use_cnt
is not incremented yet. So attributes are created readonly
without checking desc->property_is_writeable() and writeable
files are readonly.

To fix this, revert back to calling desc->property_is_writeable()
directly without using the helper.

Hans noticed the same issue, but fixed it differently [0].
The problem is that the hwmon registration also uses
power_supply_property_is_writeable() and has the same issue.
(Independently from my change)

IMO this is the better fix.

(Plus the renaming and unexporting of the function that I'll add if it
won't be part of the first fix)
