Ok, I was hoping to avoid the excessive wait if it will never actually
succeed but I assume there's some evidence that it can succeed after 40ms,
60ms, etc. Please consider the following instead:

for (i = 0; i < 5; i++) {
/* Comment on why we need a delay in between retries */
if (i)
msleep(20);
result = acpi_battery_update(battery, false);
if (!result)
break;
}
