So this looks weird, because there is an acpi_dev_put() stub in
include/linux/acpi.h too in the same #else block and it takes a
(struct acpi_device *) pointer too and it has not been touched by
the commit in question.  So why has it built successfully so far?

Also I wonder why 0-day didn't warn about that commit.

Anyway, I've added an extra declaration of struct acpi_device to the #else
block in question to suppress the warning(s).
