Generally speaking, this seems to duplicate much code from acpi_lpss which should be re-used instead.  What about moving the code that will be common between acpi_lpss and the new driver into a new file (say acpi_soc.c)?

Also, you need to avoid automatic creation of platform devices when !X86_AMD_PLATFORM_DEVICE in analogy with what acpi_lpss does, or bad things will happen.

[ken] sounds fair enough.  Let me take action to merge drivers to acpi_soc.c ? or you have other plan?
