Re: [RFC PATCH] ACPI: bus: match of_device_id using acpi device

[Srinath Mannam]

Hi Sudeep, Andy,

Yes, This patch is to get of_device_id and then fetch data pointer.

To add ACPI support in multiple drivers which are device-tree based
and has list of of_device_ids, by using this function
very minimal changes and can avoid acpi_device_id list in the driver.
I will send driver changes where this function used to add ACPI
support in following patches.

Below are the changes added to add ACPI support in sdhci iproc driver
using this function.
