[PATCH] drivers: mfd: check ACPI device companion before checking resources

[Lorenzo Pieralisi]

Current code in mfd-core calls into ACPI to check resources even
on a system that booted with a DT (on kernels with both DT and ACPI
support compiled in). This triggers ACPI exceptions since we may
end up calling the ACPI interpreter when it has not been initialized:

"ACPI Exception: AE_BAD_PARAMETER, Thread 2064154624 could not acquire
Mutex [0x1] (20150410/utmutex-285)"

This patch fixes the issues by adding a check for an ACPI companion
device before carrying out ACPI resources checks to avoid calling
the ACPI interpreter if the fwnode representing the device is an OF one.

Lee, Samuel,

I could not test it on X86 and I do not know if you prefer setting
ignore_resource_conflicts in the respective mfd cells (ie vexpress),
just let me know how do you want to fix it.

Thanks,
Lorenzo
