I have watched batteries cycle like that on OS X, Linux, and FreeBSD, and
some versions of Windows; possibly more recent versions try to hide it.
 It's also possible the ACPI BIOS normally hides it but needs some
recalibration step (on Macs, for example, you need to fully charge then
fully discharge then fully charge again to recalibrate it; I think that's
common).

That sounds like it is normal cycling then.
