acpi_fetch_acpi_dev(handle) does not need/take the acpi_dep_list_lock,
so you can avoid a needless unlock/lock in case acpi_fetch_acpi_dev(handle)
finds a device already, which will happen quite regular since devices
with _DEP lists regularly have more then 1 dep so they will be present
as consumer on the _DEP list more then once.

So maybe:

list_for_each_entry_safe(dep, tmp, &acpi_dep_list, node) {
acpi_handle handle = dep->consumer;
struct acpi_device *device = acpi_fetch_acpi_dev(handle);

/*
* In case there are multiple acpi_dep_list entries with the
* same consumer, skip scanning the current entry if the consumer
* device object corresponding to it is present already.
*/
if (device)
goto check_dep;

/*
* Even though the lock is released here, tmp is guaranteed to
* be valid, because none of the list entries following dep is
* marked as "free when met" and so they cannot be deleted.
*/
mutex_unlock(&acpi_dep_list_lock);
acpi_scan_postponed_branch(handle);
mutex_lock(&acpi_dep_list_lock);

check_dep:
if (dep->met)
acpi_scan_delete_dep_data(dep);
else
dep->free_when_met = true;
}

?

Hans
