ACPI / battery: fix wrong value of capacity_now reported when fully c…

…harged

It seems that some batteries (noticed on DELL JYPJ136) assume
capacity_now = design_capacity when fully charged. This causes
reported capacity to suddenly jump to >full_charge_capacity (and that
means capacity reported to userspace is >100% and incorrect)
values after 99%. This patch detects capacity_now > full_charge_capacity,
notifies userspace (unless it is the known bug where capacity_now ==
design_capacity) and trims the value to full_charge_capacity.
