For what it's worth, I've tested this patchset with the exception of
patch 9/9 - which I leave out because it would require annoying fiddling
with my kernel builds - and it gives apparently-accurate battery/AC
information on my Venue 8 Pro.

It doesn't *obviously* cause any other problems, though there are a few
other issues I'm dealing with ATM. If any of them turn out to be related
to this patch set, I'll send a follow-up.
