Or perhaps something like,

bool acpi_dev_uid_match(struct acpi_device *adev, const void *uid2, enum uid_type type)
{
        u64 uid1_d, uid2_d;

        if (type == UID_TYPE_STR) {
                char *uid2_s = (char *)uid2;
                if (!(uid2_s && !kstrtou64(uid2_s, 0, &uid2_d)))
                        return false;
        } else if (type == UID_TYPE_INT) {
                u64 *uid2_p;
                uid2_p = (u64 *)uid2;
                uid2_d = *uid2_p;
        } else {
                return false;
        }

        if (!acpi_dev_uid_to_integer(adev, &uid1_d) && uid1_d == uid2_d)
                return true;
        else
                return false;
}

Although this looks unnecessarily hideous.
