Subject: Re: [PATCH v3 5/6] ACPI: platform: Add macro for acpi platform driver

I think that this goes the other way around: common code is moved from
intel-hid and intel-vbtn to acpi_platform and the new macro is
introduced as a way for the drivers to invoke that code.

Overall, it looks like this patch does not depend on the [1-4/6] in this series.

Why is this needed here?

This actually isn't right and should not be perpetuated.

Platform devices are created for ACPI device objects with ACPI device
IDs by acpi_default_enumeration(), so it should not be necessary to do
that from a driver.

Same thing here.

If "extern" is not necessary above, please remove it.
