It does not even compile :)

On serious note (after adding forward declaration) - patch half works. It does 
make "online" return true value (which confirms that underlying ACPI works 
correctly) but HAL still does not notice it.

The problem is, with power_supply interface HAL does not use polling, it 
relies on CHANGE event. This event is apparently never generated if AC 
adapter state changes on resume. So the obvious fix is to compare AC state 
before and after suspend in ->resume function and generate synthetic CHANGE 
event if something has changed.

This will also make superfluous polling redundant.
