Same on Latitude CPi D266XT.
It was even worse until I've patched DSDT. 
For now I get only the same message and can't get anything about batteries:

acpi_cmbat0: battery initinalization failed, giving up
acpi_cmbat1: battery initinalization failed, giving up

Looks like buggy ACPI code in 5.1-RELEASE,
because with 5.0-RELEASE everything was OK.

I guess I should merge ACPI code from 5.0-RELEASE
in 5.1-RELEASE and rebuild everything.

Any comments? Ideas?
