I'm sorry for my tone, it begins with amount of abuse case of GPIO for
ACPI in kernel followed by wilfully invented ACPI IDs in the drivers.

I have no strong opinion, but IDs might collide in the future if PCAxxxx
will be assigned to something else and the patch will go stable@ (yeah,
OTOH it's quite unlikely).

So, we may postpone any stable@ back porting up to some real issue
appears. Regarding second one, it's not important at all (could be even
dropped). Consider it as example how to use _DSD and PRP0001 in ACPI
case for DT-enabled drivers.
