  currently doing a bit of cleanup to drivers/acpi/Kconfig, and one
reads this:

config ACPI_BATTERY
        tristate "Battery"
        depends on X86
        select POWER_SUPPLY
        default y
        help
          This driver adds support for battery information through
          /proc/acpi/battery. If you have a mobile system with a battery,
          say Y.

  naturally, the reference to /proc/acpi/battery is a bit outdated, so
i wanted to update that line -- is the current reference to the
battery now /sys/class/power_supply/, and probably called "BAT0"? or
am i misreading that? thanks.

noise.
