Not sure I understand why _ops is a suffix for the function. I would
expect _ops to be a data struct where the ->xlate() and perhaps other
callbacks may be collected. It may be that I have missed that portion
in the previous discussion.

It rather reminds me of platform device registration full with this
device info. May be what you need is
struct acpi_platfrom_device_info {
  properties;
  name;
  id;
  ->xlate();
  ...
};

?

...because this looks  a bit too much from the amount of parameters
point of view.
