No plans to MFC since it doesn't count as a security fix.  You can
probably get by with just updating sys/dev/acpica and
sys/contrib/dev/acpica to -CURRENT but no guarantees.

I thought there were no problems with the battery in 5.2 or 5.2.1.  In any
case, if you have problems, you can revert
sys/contrib/dev/acpica/dsmthdat.c to 1.1.1.17 and that will probably work
also (vs. updating to -current).
