Thanks for the response.
I just looked at the code on my system and it turns out that 4.10,5 *does*
have your patch in 110941, so you are correct.

While I am waiting for 4.11 to reach ports, do you have any suggestion for
any temporary hack
I can apply to my 4.10,5 for my system?  Other than this minor annoyance
with the battery, everything
works great!
