In the battery output, there are a couple of differences. The big one is that on
initial boot, these lines are missing:
  battery.charge_level.design = 4000  (0xfa0)  (int)
  battery.charge_level.last_full = 4000  (0xfa0)  (int)
  battery.charge_level.unit = 'mAh'  (string)

Also, I notice that it says the vendor of my battery is COMPAL the first time,
but Sony after that. COMPAL is the laptop manufacturer, Sony makes the battery
pack. 
/proc/acpi/info says at all times that I've seen it:
present:                 yes
design capacity:         4000 mAh
last full capacity:      4000 mAh
battery technology:      rechargeable
design voltage:          14800 mV
design capacity warning: 420 mAh
design capacity low:     156 mAh
capacity granularity 1:  264 mAh
capacity granularity 2:  3780 mAh
model number:            PA3098U
serial number:           3658Q
battery type:            Li-l
OEM info:                Sony

Of course, that doesn't rule out that at some point during the boot, the kernel
reports COMPAL as the OEM info for the battery.
