[PATCH] acpi: Update battery information on notification 0x81

From: Matthew Garrett
Date: Mon Aug 16 2010 - 16:32:44 EST


A notification event 0x81 from an ACPI battery device requires us to
re-read the battery information structure. Do so, and if the battery's
reporting units have changed (as is the case on some Thinkpads) destroy
and recreate the battery in order to populate the fields correctly.
