Thanks for pointers! Not it mainline, I'd notice that.

I reverted 706ac4aa536f , and on the next boot:

pavel@amd:~$ cat /proc/acpi/battery/BAT0/state
present: yes
capacity state: ok
charging state: charged
present rate: 0 mW
remaining capacity: 37150 mWh
present voltage: 16400 mV

..plus icon was ok from the start.
