from my review comments you may find that your v2 change contains a bug
plus it misses a minor but desirable code optimization. You may get more
review comments then, for example it is not obvious that on a platform
with both CONFIG_ACPI and CONFIG_OF enabled there should be an exclusive
selection of only one of two possible branches as in your code etc.

The discussed IS_BUILTIN() and dev_dbg() code chunks are other ones, for
both of them you may find my review comments and Andy's responses, it's
up to you as the author to make any updates or keep the code as is,
taking into account any expressed concerns and concerns about concerns
the maintainer will make a decision.
