The code is using the compatible DT string to associate a reset driver
with the actual device itself. The compatible string does not exist on
ACPI based systems. HID is the unique identifier for a device driver
instead.

I didn't necessarily have a problem with this being set in the
declaration.

?!?!  The point was that that entire if{} branch is unnecessary.  The
WARN_ON handles the (impossible) case of !vdev->acpihid.  We just need:

#ifdef CONFIG_ACPI
	vdev->acpihid = acpi_device_hid(adev);
#endif
	return WARN_ON(!vdev->acpihid) ? -ENOENT : 0;

nit, might make sense to replace EPERM with ENOENT and use EINVAL here.

I think this is better. If ACPI is disabled, it is dangerous to call an 
ACPI API.

Sure, will take carr of it.

Anything else I need to take care of?

Not that I see, maybe just send a new version of this patch if the

I hope so, I'll try to get it into my next branch within the next day
