I suspect 5d38258ec026921a7b266f4047ebeaa75db358e5 "ACPI battery: fix async boot oops" [removal of __init] was not sufficient to fix my problem, but it was solved by the "real" fix, d6de2c80e9d758d2e36c21699117db6178c0f517 "async: Fix module loading async-work regression" [module loading waits on async work] I would argue there's still a question over why the asynchronous battery init (_with_ the oops fix) should cause a hang in the idle routine. But since the regression is fixed, it's not exactly an urgent question.
