I don't see anything in sec 6.1.1 (_ADR) that precludes having
multiple objects that contain the same _ADR.  Do you have any other
pointers?

I consider this a purely ACPI issue, and hence something that you own
completely.

That said, my opinion is that this heuristic doesn't sound reliable to
me.  It feels like an ad hoc solution that works for the case at hand,
but I don't have any reason to think BIOS writers will unconsciously
make the same assumptions or that other OSes will contain the same
algorithm.

The existence of acpi_get_child_device() means we're assuming there
can only be a single child with matching _ADR.  Since that assumption
turned out to be false, maybe we need a way to deal with several
children.  Maybe we need a list of matching children, or maybe we
search matching children for a method at the time we need it instead
of trying to pick one child up front.
