 Technically, the patches look good. But I'm not sure about the
 EC/Device-tree thing. Is there any consensus? Should I just
 apply the patches, so the remaining issues could be fixed
 later?
 
 Thanks,
 

Hi Anton,

Just curious, were these ever merged?  The concensus was definitely
that they should be, but I notice your infradead battery-2.6 tree
doesn't carry them.  It would be great to get them in with your 2.6.38
pull request.

Given that OLPC machines out there currently have broken battery
information with UPower and friends, I think that the patches should be
applied.

Doing stuff in the EC or device-tree may be done in the future, but
even after it's written  debugged, it will still take some time for
people to upgrade their firmware.

Agreed. In the general case in future though, it would be really useful
if we could avoid having magic numbers like this in the kernel; we want
them to come from as close to the hardware as possible.

Given that we *have* a sane firmware on OLPC, we should be using it.
