>>From 3b0fb1239e5bc064766ffa3d7a45265e722fb9eb Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Richard Hughes Date: Sun, 25 Jan 2009 15:05:50 +0000 Subject: [PATCH] battery: don't assume we are fully charged when not charging or discharging On hardware like the T61 it can take a couple of seconds for the battery to start charging after the power is connected, and we incorrectly tell userspace that we are fully charged, and then go back to charging. Only mark a battery as fully charged when the preset charge matches either the last full charge, or the design charge.
