Yup. It's an HTC specific thing -- some of their devices don't have a
battery gauge IC and estimate current drain based on hints provided to
the baseband from the apps processor. I'm not particularly thrilled
with the interface, but without it the battery level estimation is
flakier.

Is there a reason that this couldnt be done in userspace?
