Is there a bugzilla report or mailing list discussion you could point
to here (in the changelog)?

Unrelated change, but OK by me :-)

This part (run ispnpidacpi() on all _HIDs & _CIDs, not just on _HID,
so we'll now build a PNPACPI device for things with an invalid _HID
but a valid _CID) makes sense to me and is probably required for the
i8042 PNP driver to claim the device.

I'm curious about this part.  Does it fix something?

Let's say this device has _HID=SNYSYN0003, _CID=PNP0F13.

Previously, we didn't make a PNP device at all because SNYSYN0003 is
invalid.  Now, we'll make a device, exclude SNYSYN0003 from the PNP ID
list, and it looks like the loop farther down will add PNP0f13 again,
so we'll end up with "PNP0f13 PNP0f13" (I think I mentioned this when
reviewing an earlier version of the patch :-)).

With the original pnp_alloc_dev(acpi_device_hid()) call, we'll probably
end up with "SNYsyn0 PNP0f13".  That's clearly wrong, too.

For now, I think the best fix is to keep this pnp_alloc_dev() call change
and adjust the loop so it doesn't add "pnpid" again, so we end up with
just "PNP0f13".

In the long term, I wonder if it'd be better to quit checking the ID for
validity and make pnp_id.id a pointer rather than an array, so we could
have "SNYSYN0003 PNP0f13" as PNP IDs for this device.  I bet that's what
Windows does.
