I considered checking the handle, but I used the parent pointer because: 1) There are synonyms for the root handle: ACPI_ROOT_OBJECT is the special-case #define to allow ACPICA users to start traversing the namespace before they know any handles, but acpi_gbl_root_node is the real root handle. In fact, if you call acpi_get_parent() on a child of the root, it returns acpi_gbl_root_node, not ACPI_ROOT_OBJECT. This is a bit messy, and it seems safest to me to just avoid testing against ACPI_ROOT_OBJECT at all. 2) It's a reminder that the acpi_device tree data structure should be a proper fully-connected tree with exactly one root. If we assume a valid tree, there's exactly one node with no parent. That's more fundamental than the handle, where you have to analyze more code to make sure we don't assign ACPI_ROOT_OBJECT to several nodes. (There is existing code that allows disconnected trees to be built. For example, dock_create_acpi_device() can call acpi_bus_add() with a NULL parent pointer. This "shouldn't happen," but I consider the fact that the interface allows this to be a bug. That's one reason I'm removing the "parent" argument from acpi_add_single_object() and related interfaces.) 3) We build acpi_devices for things with no handle, e.g., functional fixed hardware. Their handles happen to be NULL but I prefer to think of them as undefined and not rely on them at all. 4) acpi_walk_namespace(..., ACPI_ROOT_OBJECT, ...) doesn't actually visit the root node; it starts with the children. I consider this a bug. If it were ever fixed, we would probably call the callback with acpi_gbl_root_node, not ACPI_ROOT_OBJECT, so the root acpi_device handle would no longer be ACPI_ROOT_OBJECT.
