Please always spell ACPI in capitals in patch subjects, comments,
changelogs, etc.  It is not a regular word.

Are you aware of the consensus that using PRP0001 in production
platform firmware will be regarded as invalid?

Because of that, it is not an option for a driver to avoid providing
ACPI match data on a platform that uses ACPI.
