Given my forgetfulness and your pointing out that this *does* add the
dependencies (by virtue of adding PNP0C0F to the acpi_honor_dep_ids[]
list), it does make sense here.

Maybe expanding this to "Add the link devices HID (PNP0C0F) to the
acpi_honor_dep_ids[] dependency list" would help connect this all
together?

Oh, right, sorry. I remember working this out in the past, but I had
forgotten.
I think it makes sense in this patch because the add and removal are
matched when they're in the same patch.
Sorry for the noise!
