Well, I think you got to the bottom of this, but that's something we can
do long-term.  Still, we need to find a short-term solution for the
particular issue at hand.

Indeed.

All above said, appended is the relevant piece of the DSDT from the machine
in question (and that is in the PCI host bridge scope).

So we have a PCI device with an ACPI object called LPC which has a child
called SIO and the _HID of that child is "PNP0C02".

I'm not sure if the way system.c handles this is correct in this particular
case to be honest.
