Looks fine to me. acpi_bus_register_driver must return -ENODEV when no device with matching HID was found. E.g. battery also should currently get always loaded even a system never has one. driver_attach returned the amount of found devices in past, this was changed recently (can't find the patch/mail) right now. This change broke things and should get corrected by these patches.
