We don't do that as a rule as there would be too many warnings that are not
really useful.  Users can't do much about those things at this stage (buggy
firmware has shipped already) and for the firmware people it is better to
cover things like that in firmware test suites (which in theory may help to
avoid shipping buggy firmware in the first place).

That said we print a warning in acpi_init_of_compatible() if things are not
consistent (which doesn't cover the case when _DSD is missing entirely, though),
so IMO it'd be better to refine that one instead of adding a new one which
wouldn't cover all cases too (eg. if PRP0001 is not the first ID in the list
and a previous one is matched to a different scan handler).
