There is no fallback mechanism for BSD systems. We need to avoid
polling here as it will break E on first poll of data.
Essentially, if we fail to find a battery, we use a broken
fallback mechanism which breaks E. Don't do this :)
makes gcc warnings happy but otherwise doesn't hurt us as the buffer
should be at the top of the stack (last pushed) and only bytes used
will be allocated.
So yeah, I've literally used sed to replace every occurrence of
ecore_time_add() with ecore_timer_loop_add() because I'm reasonably
confident that no part of E has a legitimate need for timer based on the
exact current time.
It would be really nice if I'm not wrong. :)
The reason for this is the incredible spew of clock_gettime() calls I'm
seeing on an ARM system (that should have a vdso for gettime, but...)
This can amount to thousands of system calls per second.
