Revert "ACPI / battery: fix wrong value of capacity_now reported when fully charged"
This reverts commit 232de5143790 ("ACPI / battery: fix wrong value of capacity_now reported when fully charged") There is nothing wrong or unexpected about 'capacity_now' increasing above the last 'full_charge_capacity' value. Different charging cycles will cause 'full_charge_capacity' to vary, both up and down. Good battery firmwares will update 'full_charge_capacity' when the current charging cycle is complete, increasing it if necessary. It might even go above 'design_capacity' on a fresh and healthy battery. Capping 'capacity_now' to 'full_charge_capacity' is plain wrong, and printing a warning if this doesn't happen to match the 'design_capacity' is both annoying and terribly wrong. This results in bogus warnings on perfectly working systems/firmwares: [Firmware Bug]: battery: reported current charge level (39800) is higher than reported maximum charge level (39800). and wrong values being reported for 'capacity_now' and 'full_charge_capacity' after the warning has been triggered.
