I'm not aware of any work on integrating this sort of stuff into ACPI
platforms so I think it's just not yet supported in ACPI.  I'm not
really sure what would be idiomatic for ACPI, figuring it out from what
the part supports might well be idiomatic there though I don't know how
common it is for people not to wire up all the data lines even if both
controller and device support wider transfers.  I've got a horrible
feeling that the idiomatic thing is a combination of that and a bunch of
per-device quirks.  There may be a spec I'm not aware of though I'd be a
bit surprised.
