[PATCH V4 09/11] ACPI: introduce acpi platform exclude id list

[Zhang Rui]

For ACPI PIC (PNP0000) and Timer (PNP0100) device objects, although
they have _HID control method, but they should not be enumerated to
platform bus, because there will never be any platform drivers for them.

Thus an exclude id list is introduced in this patch to prevent
those platform device nodes from being created.
