ACPI / battery: Add sysfs representation after checking _BST
Thus move sysfs_add_battery() after acpi_battery_get_state(), which doesn't require the power_supply. Prevents possible hanged tasks if acpi_battery_get_state() fails consistently (and takes a long time in doing so) when called inside acpi_battery_add(). In this situation the battery module first calls sysfs_add_battery(), which creates a power_supply, which spawns an async power_supply_deferred_register_work() task, which shall try to hold the parent battery device mutex (being already held) so this register work is set up after device initialization. If initialization takes long enough the thread will be eventually run and try to hold the mutex before acpi_battery_add() had the chance to finish. Eventually the 5 retries in acpi_battery_update_retry() fail, the error state is propagated, and results in sysfs_remove_battery() being called within the error handling paths of acpi_battery_add(), and the power_supply tear down too. This triggers a cancel_delayed_work_sync() of the deferred_register_work task, which ends up in schedule(). The end result is that the deferred task is blocked trying to acquire the parent device mutex, which is not released because the thread doing initialization (and failure handling) went to sleep awaiting for the deferred task to be cancelled. The hanged tasks look like this: INFO: task kworker/u8:0:6 blocked for more than 120 seconds. ...
