I've also noticed a regression since -rc2 in battery status reporting
on my HP nx7300 laptop: the output of

    cat /proc/acpi/battery/C1BE/state

does not change after this file has been read for the the first time;
for exaple, the line "charging state: charged" does not change to
"charging state: discharging" upon unplugging the power cord.

Reverting the above 2 commits fixes this issue for me.
