There is no black and white, don't be silly.

1. Exactly the reason you asked above. Here is the code which has
built differently on different platforms. x86 usually is not using
CONFIG_OF, ARM doesn't ACPI (versus ARM64). Check GPIO library for
existing examples.
2. We might add that support later, but here is again, just no-op.

So, what is your strong argument here against that?
