Right, but I believe this is in response to the author and not to me.

I remembered that I have also stumbled over that, but IIRC the point
here is that ACPI tables might be broken (since the multi-instance
device is a gray area to begin with). So we need clarification from
Cirrus to understand what the cases they want to cover with this
twisted code to get a GPIO.
