ACPI: Battery: remove cycle from battery removal.

get_property() should not call battery_update() on absent battery to
avoid cycle and oops.

A patch similar to this one but with an identical changelog was merged into
Len's tree on November 2.
If it had been promptly merged into mainline then quite a lot of people's
time would not have been wasted.
Andrew,
should I send such patches directly to you/Linus?
Regards,
Alex
