Subject: ACPI: Fix ACPI battery regression introduced by commit 558073
Commit 558073dd56707864f09d563b64e7c37c021e89d2
"ACPI: battery: Convert discharge energy rate to current properly"
caused the battery subsystem to report wrong values of the remaining
time on battery power and the time until fully charged on Toshiba
Portege R500 (and presumably on other boxes too).
Fix the issue by correcting the conversion from mW to mA.
