This is reasonable - I can remove this dependency.

We might have to add #ifdef around the ACPI related functions. The
reason is not because of acpi_evaluate_dsm() or acpi_evaluate_dsm().
Instead the compilation will fail due to "pci_acpi_dsm_guid". In TPH V2
series, somebody reported the following error:

"
This seems to break builds on ARM (32bit) with multi_v7_defconfig.

  .../tph.c:221:39: error: use of undeclared identifier 'pci_acpi_dsm_guid'
  221 |         out_obj = acpi_evaluate_dsm(handle, &pci_acpi_dsm_guid,

I am OK with it. Some extended features, such as ATS, are indeed
implemented in drivers/pci/.

Bjorn: Any comments on this idea?
