Thank you for the patch, one change seems good to have along this.

Right, since it was adev || _crs() combined.

Now we may remove that check from __acpi_find_gpio():

+++ b/drivers/gpio/gpiolib-acpi.c

As a side effect it will make the comment better to understand.

With above suggestion applied, feel free to add mine

You might need to rephrase the commit message to say that

 "We also move the check in additional to the moving the function call
 outside of __acpi_find_gpio()."

or something similar, up to you.
