The PCI subsystem uses __weak stubs such as pcibios_add_bus() for arch-
specific behaviour, or quirks which can be declared in arch/x86 to
constrain them to this specific platform.

Perhaps it makes sense to introduce ACPI quirks which can be declared
the same way as PCI quirks to avoid cluttering the generic code with
arch- or device-specific special cases.  So in this case we'd have
something like:

DECLARE_ACPI_FIXUP_STATUS(const char *hid, const char *uid, hook);

And before calling _STA we'd check for presence of a fixup for the
device in question.  Any additional stuff such as _HRV, CPU ID,
DMI data could be checked in the fixup hook.  Thoughts?

By the way:

Why is this added to acpi_set_device_status(), rather than
acpi_bus_get_status_handle() ?  That way you're gratuitously calling
_STA even though you ignore its return value afterwards.
