Then it's clearly told that BIOS provides confusing data, it exposes
the ACPI device and hides it in p2sb, how is it even supposed to work?
I consider only these are valid:
- ACPI device is provided and it's enabled (status = 15) => work with
ACPI enumeration
- no ACPI device provided and it's hidden or not by p2sb => work via board file
- no ACPI device provided and no device needed / present => no driver is needed

Not a problem to add a platform driver name there or actually for all
of the Intel pin control drivers (depends what suits better to the
current design).

I didn't get what 'label' means here...
