Subject: [PATCH V7 05/11] ACPI: allow scan handlers without .attach() callback

Devices that can be attached to scan handlers, are kind of different from
the others, because they are known that some special actions should be taken.

But we do not mark this difference when the configurable scan handlers
are compiled out. This is harmless currently, but it will be when
we want to take some common actions to the other "non-special" devices,
which will be done in a later patch.

This patch makes .attach() of the acpi scan handler optional.
So that the configurable scan handlers can provide NULL .attach() callback
when not supported.
