While trying to argue I found out that there already is
`device_get_match_data`, which takes PRP0001 into account.

I will now instead make a patch, which will make rust use this function
instead of calling `of_match_device` and `acpi_match_device`
individually, which ignores PRP0001.

There are still a lot of drivers only using `of_match_device`, which
makes it impossible to use PRP0001 with them. But this is not relevant
for this driver.
