Subject: [PATCH] ACPI: add documentation for deprecated /proc/acpi/battery in ACPI_PROCFS

From: Jerome Pinot <ngc891@...il.com>

Add documentation in Kconfig help about the move of /proc/acpi/battery
to /sys/class/power_supply
when selecting ACPI_PROCFS. This will impact a lot of users and should
be documented.
