ACPI 6.0 adds support for optional processor container device which may

It is declared using the _HID of ACPI0010. It may also have _CID of
PNP0A05, which represents a generic container device.
Container device helps support hotplug of nodes, CPUs, and memory,
does this container device ACPI0010 used for the same purpose?
That's correct and the patch isn't.
Thanks Rafael for the clarification.
Just curious if the firmware adds _CID of PNP0A05 to support OS that
don't parse processor containers, will the current code not create
containers using _CID ?

Sudeep
