My biggest concern with putting PNP0C09 in the direct match table is
that it would cause cros_ec_lpcs to be loaded for *all* devices with
an ACPI-compatible embedded controller; it would likely print an error
and bail out early on, but it would still be unnecessary on 99% of
platforms.

This is my misunderstanding the driver model, but is it possible to
add a second companion device?
