r357614 added CTLFLAG_NEEDGIANT to make it easier to find nodes that are
still not MPSAFE (or already are but aren’t properly marked).
Use it in preparation for a general review of all nodes.
This is non-functional change that adds annotations to SYSCTL_NODE and
SYSCTL_PROC nodes using one of the soon-to-be-required flags.
Mark all obvious cases as MPSAFE. All entries that haven't been marked
as MPSAFE before are by default marked as NEEDGIANT

ACPI Control Method Batteries have a _BIF and/or _BIX object which
provide static properties of the battery. FreeBSD acpi_cmbat module
supported _BIF object only, which was deprecated as of ACPI 4.0.
_BIX is an extended version of _BIF defined in ACPI 4.0 or later.
As of writing, _BIX has two revisions. One is in ACPI 4.0 (rev.0) and
another is in ACPI 6.0 (rev.1). It seems that hardware vendors still
stick to _BIF only or _BIX rev.0 + _BIF for the maximum compatibility.
Microsoft requires _BIX rev.0 for Windows machines, so there are some
laptop machines with _BIX rev.0 only. In this case, FreeBSD does not
recognize the battery information.
After this change, the acpi_cmbat module gets battery information from
_BIX or _BIF object and internally uses _BIX rev.1 data structure as
the primary information store in the kernel. ACPIIO_BATT_GET_BI[FX]
returns an acpi_bi[fx] structure built by using information obtained
from a _BIF or a _BIX object found on the system. The revision number
field can be used to check which field is available. The acpiconf(8)
utility will show additional information if _BIX is available.
Although ABIs of ACPIIO_BATT_* were changed, the existing APIs for
userland utilities are not changed and the backward-compatible ABIs
are provided. This means that older versions of acpiconf(8) can also
work with the new kernel. The (union acpi_battery_ioctl_arg) was
padded to 256 byte long to avoid another ABI change in the future.
A _BIX object with its revision number >1 will be treated as
compatible with the rev.1 _BIX format.

The timespecadd(3) family of macros were imported from NetBSD back in
r35029. However, they were initially guarded by #ifdef _KERNEL. In the
meantime, we have grown at least 28 syscalls that use timespecs in some
way, leading many programs both inside and outside of the base system to
redefine those macros. It's better just to make the definitions public.
Our kernel currently defines two-argument versions of timespecadd and
timespecsub. NetBSD, OpenBSD, and FreeDesktop.org's libbsd, however, define
three-argument versions. Solaris also defines a three-argument version, but
only in its kernel. This revision changes our definition to match the
common three-argument version.
Bump _FreeBSD_version due to the breaking KPI change.

The SYSCTL_NODE macro defines a list that stores all child-elements of
that node. If there's no SYSCTL_DECL macro anywhere else, there's no
reason why it shouldn't be static.
This is based on the patch submitted by Yuri Skripachov.
Overview of the changes:
- clarify double-use of some ACPI_BATT_STAT_* definitions
- clean up undefined/extended status bits returned by _BST
- warn about charging+discharging bits being set at the same time

if (batt_sleep_ms)
AcpiOsSleep(1);
where the rest are all:
if (batt_sleep_ms)
AcpiOsSleep(batt_sleep_ms);
I can't recall why that one was different, so change it
to match the rest.

On some laptops with smart batteries, enabling battery monitoring
software causes keystrokes from atkbd to be lost. This has also been
reported on Linux, and is apparently due to the keyboard and I2C line
for the battery being routed through the same chip. Whether that's
accurate or not, adding extra sleeps to the status checking code
causes the problem to go away.
I've been running this for nearly six months now on my laptop,
it works like a charm.

before. The symptom is that the battery inform us its charge and discharge
at the same time...
* fix bst.rate to correctly output the (dis)charging rate. We'll use
the current average over one minute command and not the at_rate command.
Note that this method is not correct if the capacity_mode is set, but
since we don't set it ourself, it is not a problem.
The at_rate do not give the actual rate but is used to compute the
estimated time for (dis)charging a battery. We should actually
write an estimation of the actual rate using at_rate cmd and then
perform a read to the various estimators.

support the CM-battery interface. Smart batteries can eventually be
supported without ACPI via a separate SMBus interface. The ACPI interface
uses the embedded controller for reading/writing to the SMBus, and normal
ASL definitions for locating the battery controller (since SMBus can't be
enumerated.) Also import definitions for the smart battery interface.
This was written by Hans Petter Selasky with minor cleanups from myself.
