Yes, that code is not doing what was expected.
Current usage scenario in ACPI mode is:
xSPI block with HID PRP0001, and additional compatible package set to
correct compatible string
With that approach only issue(in ACPI mode) is with matching device
with data field from of_device_id. It looks like there are functions
to match that when DTB is used, but in ACPI mode it fails.
I believe solution is to traverse dev->driver->of_match_table manually
To match device name with correct compatible data structure.
That will be included in next patchset.
