The button to limit battery charge is missing in Settings > Power on my CachyOS installation with GNOME 48.

"Preserve Battery Health" button missing in GNOME 48 on Lenovo Thinkbook 14 gen 6

Report Body:

Hi,

The button to limit battery charge is missing in Settings > Power on my CachyOS installation with GNOME 48.

I have confirmed the following:

Secure Boot is disabled.

The file /sys/class/power_supply/BAT0/charge_control_end_threshold exists and I can write to it.

I can limit the charge manually from the terminal and it works correctly.

The power-profiles-daemon service is running and enabled.

I have forced a reload of the rules with udevadm and restarted the service without success.

It appears to be a bug in the GUI layer that doesn't detect the feature, even though the kernel does.

My laptop model is: [Insert your exact laptop model]
