This series refines _UID references across kernel by: - Extracting _UID matching functionality from acpi_dev_hid_uid_match() helper and introducing it as a separate acpi_dev_uid_match() helper. - Converting manual _UID references to use standard ACPI helpers. Raag Jadav (8): ACPI: utils: Introduce acpi_dev_uid_match() for matching _UID pinctrl: intel: use acpi_dev_uid_match() for matching _UID ACPI: sysfs: use acpi_device_uid() for fetching _UID ACPI: utils: use acpi_dev_uid_match() for matching _UID ACPI: x86: use acpi_dev_uid_match() for matching _UID perf: qcom: use acpi_device_uid() for fetching _UID hwmon: nct6775: use acpi_dev_hid_uid_match() for matching _HID and _UID perf: arm_cspmu: use acpi_dev_hid_uid_match() for matching _HID and _UID drivers/acpi/device_sysfs.c | 6 ++-- drivers/acpi/utils.c | 43 +++++++++++++++++++++------ drivers/acpi/x86/utils.c | 3 +- drivers/hwmon/nct6775-platform.c | 4 +-- drivers/perf/arm_cspmu/arm_cspmu.c | 8 ++--- drivers/perf/qcom_l3_pmu.c | 4 +-- drivers/pinctrl/intel/pinctrl-intel.c | 2 +- include/acpi/acpi_bus.h | 1 + include/linux/acpi.h | 5 ++++ 9 files changed, 51 insertions(+), 25 deletions(-) base-commit: 9bc2fb9a7e41542a193658deff3df572fa24cb68 -- 2.17.1
