Ah ok, I see. So the code:

1. First tries to find the matching child acpi_device for the auxdev by ADR

2. If 1. fails then falls back to HID + UID matching

And there are DSDTs which use either:

1. Only use _ADR to identify which child device is which, like the example
   DSDT snippet from the commit msg.

2. Only use _HID + _UID like the 2 example DSDT snippets from me email

But there never is a case where both _ADR and _HID are used at
the same time (which would be an ACPI spec violation as Andy said).

So AFAICT there is no issue here since  _ADR and _HID are never
user at the same time and the commit message correctly describes
scenario 1. from above, so the commit message is fine too.

So I believe that we can continue with this patch series in
its current v20 form, which has already been staged for
going into -next by Greg.

Andy can you confirm that moving ahead with the current
version is ok ?

Regards,

Hans
