The change still looks good to me, however I wonder if we could maybe
improve acpi_dev_uid_match() to support both data types possible for
_UID? This of course is separate patch (unless there are objections).

There is the _Generic() thing and I think that can be used to make

  acpi_dev_uid_match()

which takes either u64 (or maybe even unsigned int) or const char * and
based on that picks the correct implementation. Not sure if that's
possible, did not check but it would allow us to use one function
everywhere instead of acpi_dev_uid_to_integer() and
acpi_dev_uid_match().
