Will those drivers be loaded before the acpi namespace is scanned? if not, I think
those IDs already cached, in acpi_init_device_object(),

INIT_LIST_HEAD(&device->pnp.ids);
...
acpi_set_pnp_ids(handle, &device->pnp, type);

please see API acpi_device_hid(), so I think you can introduce a API with
acpi_device and HID passed as arguments in scan.c

Thanks
