I don't maintain it (Bjorn does that AFAICS), but I may be one of the
developers who have touched it most recently.

In any case, I don't think it is at fault here, but firmware
expectations that go beyond provisions made by the ACPI specification:

https://uefi.org/specs/ACPI/6.5/05_ACPI_Software_Programming_Model.html#device-object-notifications

because it seems to really want to trigger a bus rescan starting from
a device that has been discovered already that will lead to a
discovery of a specific "new" device along with its parent.  Sending a
device check notification on a device that has not been discovered yet
and whose parent has not been discovered yet either may reasonably be
regarded as unsuitable for this purpose.

That said, it appears to be possible to adjust the generic ACPI device
notification handling code to take this firmware behavior into account
kind of as expected.  That is, if a device check notification is
received on a device object without a hotplug context, look for its
closest ancestor that has a hotplug context or otherwise can handle
hotplug and trigger a bus check from it as though it got a bus check
notification.

Please check the attached (completely untested) patch.
