Subject: [PATCH 04/85] ACPI: Attach the ACPI device to the ACPI handle as early
 as possible

From: Zhao Yakui <yakui.zhao@...el.com>

Attach the ACPI device to the ACPI handle as early as possible so that OS
can get the corresponding ACPI device by the acpi handle in the course
of getting the power/wakeup/performance flags.
