The justification ("If a host bridge B depends on host bridge A (via
_DEP), this call allows bridge B to proceed with enumeration after
bridge A is fully initialized") doesn't sound specific to RISC-V.

For that matter, it doesn't sound specific to host bridges either.

The _DEP spec language is a bit vague.  ACPI r6.6, sec 6.5.8, says:

  _DEP evaluates to a package and designates device objects that OSPM
  should assign a higher priority in start ordering due to
  dependencies between devices (for example, related to future
  operation region accesses).

I don't know what "device start" means.  It sounds like this alludes
to the order in which OSPM runs some device start method?  _INI?
Should acpi_dev_clear_dependencies() be done at the point where that
device start method is run?
