This is potentially a lot of atomic allocations.

acpi_os_acquire_object is called by..

drivers/acpi/parser/psutils.c  acpi_ps_alloc_op()
drivers/acpi/utilities/utobject.c:      acpi_ut_allocate_object_desc_dbg()
drivers/acpi/utilities/utstate.c:       acpi_ut_create_generic_state()

Those three functions are called all over the place in acpi.

drivers/acpi/dispatcher/dsmethod.c:     op = acpi_ps_alloc_op(AML_METHOD_OP);
drivers/acpi/dispatcher/dsopcode.c:     op = acpi_ps_alloc_op(AML_INT_EVAL_SUBTREE_OP);
drivers/acpi/dispatcher/dsopcode.c:     op = acpi_ps_alloc_op(AML_INT_EVAL_SUBTREE_OP);

drivers/acpi/parser/psargs.c:   field = acpi_ps_alloc_op(opcode);
drivers/acpi/parser/psargs.c:           arg = acpi_ps_alloc_op(AML_BYTE_OP);
drivers/acpi/parser/psargs.c:                   arg = acpi_ps_alloc_op(AML_INT_BYTELIST_OP);
drivers/acpi/parser/psargs.c:                   arg = acpi_ps_alloc_op(AML_INT_NAMEPATH_OP);
drivers/acpi/parser/psloop.c:                                       acpi_ps_alloc_op(walk_state->
drivers/acpi/parser/psloop.c:                           op = acpi_ps_alloc_op(walk_state->opcode);

drivers/acpi/parser/psparse.c:                              acpi_ps_alloc_op(AML_INT_RETURN_VALUE_OP);
drivers/acpi/parser/psparse.c:                                      acpi_ps_alloc_op(op->common.
drivers/acpi/parser/psparse.c:                      acpi_ps_alloc_op(AML_INT_RETURN_VALUE_OP);
drivers/acpi/parser/psutils.c:  scope_op = acpi_ps_alloc_op(AML_SCOPE_OP);
drivers/acpi/utilities/utobject.c:          acpi_ut_allocate_object_desc_dbg(module_name, line_number,
drivers/acpi/utilities/utobject.c:              second_object = acpi_ut_allocate_object_desc_dbg(module_name,
drivers/acpi/dispatcher/dswscope.c:     scope_info = acpi_ut_create_generic_state();
drivers/acpi/dispatcher/dswstate.c:     state = acpi_ut_create_generic_state();
drivers/acpi/events/evmisc.c:           notify_info = acpi_ut_create_generic_state();
drivers/acpi/namespace/nseval.c:        scope_info = acpi_ut_create_generic_state();
drivers/acpi/parser/psscope.c:  scope = acpi_ut_create_generic_state();
drivers/acpi/parser/psscope.c:  scope = acpi_ut_create_generic_state();
drivers/acpi/utilities/utstate.c:       state = acpi_ut_create_generic_state();
drivers/acpi/utilities/utstate.c:       state = acpi_ut_create_generic_state();
drivers/acpi/utilities/utstate.c:       state = acpi_ut_create_generic_state();
drivers/acpi/utilities/utstate.c:       state = acpi_ut_create_generic_state();

I'll bet these callsites are all also called from multiple locations.
