Normally we only instantiate an i2c-client for the first resource,
using
the ACPI HID as id.

This commit adds a list of HIDs of devices, which need multiple i2c-
clients
instantiated from a single fwnode, to
acpi_device_enumeration_by_parent and
makes acpi_device_enumeration_by_parent return false for these devices
so
that a platform device will be instantiated.

This allows the drivers/platform/x86/i2c-multi-instantiate.c driver,
which
knows which i2c_device_id to use for each resource, to bind to the
fwnode
and initiate an i2c-client for each resource.

Style nits:
- can we move it outside of function?

Sure, but there are 2 existing users of an array of acpi_device_id-s
combined with an acpi_match_device_ids() call and both have the array
inside the function, so for consistency it seems better to keep it
where it is.

- terminator better without comma

Agreed, will fix for v4.

- is this existing style in the file and / or files in this folder for
IDs? (I mean unnecessary 0:s and empty string?

It seems that all variants one can come up with are already used inside
this single file.

I agree that less is more, so I will change this to:

        static const struct acpi_device_id i2c_multi_instantiate_ids[] = {
                {"BSG1160", },
                {}
        };

For v4.

Regards,

Hans
