What a surprise. I was under the impression that acpi.h always
includes it. Hmm... Probably we never had drivers that in Kconfig have
something like "depends on ACPI || COMPILE_TEST (and at the same time
have no explicit mod_devicetable.h inclusion nor implicit providers
like of.h), which should immediately point to the issue.
