redfox7691, i just installed new version of upower on 15.04.
all you need to do is:
1. download sources from 15.10 repo: https://launchpad.net/ubuntu/wily/+source/upower
(https://launchpad.net/ubuntu/+archive/primary/+files/upower_0.99.3.orig.tar.xz)
2. unpack archive
3. check: you must have installed libusb-1.0-dev, and some dependencies.
4. ./configure
(by configuring sources - you can see what dependencies is actually you need, and just install -dev version of it)
5. sudo make
6. sudo make install
7. reboot and enjoy "brand new" icon for M557 mouse in the top right corner of screen.

Thanks to Martin, and other contrubutors.

Bug description:
  I have a bluetooth Logitech M557, and it is being mis-detected by
  Upower as a battery instead of a mouse:

  The patch available in the upstream bug improves the situation by parsing it as a hid device, but then mistakes it for a keyboard:
