Right, the ACPI fallback ignores con_id completely and uses only the
index.

AFAIK there is only one driver using ACPI _CRS index method:
sdhci-[acpi|pci].c. If we can convert that to use acpi_dev_add_driver_gpios()
to feed names for card detection GPIOs, I think we can remove the
fallback alltogether in favor of named GPIOs for ACPI.
