Subject: [PATCH 0/4] ACPI / scan: Clean up the handling of the PRP0001 device ID

Hi,

This series of patches reworks the handling of the PRP0001 device ID with
the following goals:

 (a) Make PRP0001 work as a _CID too.
 (b) Prevent PRP0001 from overriding the other ACPI/PNP IDs entirely.
 (c) Change ACPI modalias to cover ACPI/PNP/compatible at the same time.

[1/4] Generalize the of_compatible matching routine
[2/4] Simplify acpi_match_device()
[3/4] Take PRP0001 in _CID lists into account too.
[4/4] Rework modalias creation if the "compatible" property is present.

Comments, remarks, testing welcome!

Kind regards,
Rafael
