This doesn't seem like the simplest approach to me, but I probably
don't understand what's going on in IORT.

It looks like *all* of iort_enable_acs() (the caller of
pci_request_acs()) is PCI-specific; at least, the whole thing is
wrapped in a test for ACPI_IORT_NODE_PCI_ROOT_COMPLEX.  So the whole
function could be wrapped in #ifdef CONFIG_PCI.

Here's the caller of iort_enable_acs():

  iort_init_platform_devices
    acs_enabled = false
    for (i = 0; i < iort->node_count; i++) {
      if (!acs_enabled)
        acs_enabled = iort_enable_acs(iort_node);

It seems like the acs_enabled state could be encapsulated inside
iort_enable_acs().

Today pci_request_acs() is a system-wide thing, but I don't know why
that's the case.  Isn't it conceivable that different PCI hierarchies
could have different ACS policies, e.g., because of P2P DMA or
something?

Bottom line, pci_request_acs() is being called from what looks like
PCI-specific code in IORT, and it would make more sense to me to prune
out that code in IORT than to make a stub pci_request_acs().
