It was my tree and I can take these patches, but in that case I'd like the function's name to be changed as discussed elsewhere. Executive summary is that we have acpi_dev_present() and acpi_device_is_present() now and they serve different purposes which is kind of confusing. Moreover, acpi_dev_present() doesn't check if the device is actually present, so I would like it to be renamed to acpi_device_found() or similar.
