Hi, Rafael
    Will you please open a new bug at
http://bugzilla.kernel.org/enter_bug.cgi?product=ACPI and attach the
output of acpidump, dmesg, lspci -vxxx?
    If no ACPI event is reported when AC adapter is unplugged and
plugged, the /sys/class interface can't display the correct AC status.
Now Rui is working on this issue and the patch is already finished. But
it is not sent to Lenb.

    From the problem description it seems that the problem is related
with the AC driver. But from the git-bisect it seems that the problem is
related with the button driver(Fix power button device). 

    Any-way, please attach the output of dmesg, acpidump, lspci -vxxx.

Thanks.
