Hehe, funny thing, I worked on the very same patch last Friday. I was
not able to send it upstream as I still don't have an ACPI 5 enabled
device...
So thanks for submitting (and testing) this!

Before the review, I just have a quick question. All the HID/i2c
devices I saw so far present a reset line (through a GPIO). Does the
shipped device you have present this line, and if yes, how this meld
with the code (i.e. should we take this into account).

Please note that I can only compare this to my patch, based on the
DSDT example Microsoft gave in its spec. So sorry if I'm asking
useless things, but I like to understand... :)
Here are a few comments:

Can you confirm that any value here is ok (this is what I read from
the DSDT example Microsoft gave, Arg1 is not used).

Again, the DSDT example showed that no Arg3 was used... But again, I
never wrote ACPI driver, so I may be wrong.

As you are returning NULL here, the error that will be raised is
-EINVAL. I think it should be -ENODEV in this case. I have no strong
opinion on this, but this can be achieved by returning the error from
the function, and the returned i2c_hid_platform_data as an argument.

Or maybe just an error message will be sufficient.

Again, I would like to know what happened here in case of a failure.
So an error message would be good.

idem (and returning -ENOMEM would be better IMHO).

I never saw this _CID/_HID. Just out of curiosity, is this a
standardized _CID or is it a _HID specific to a device?

You may have a line with more than 80 characters here (it's difficult
to guess thanks to my gmail client converting tabs into spaces...
grrr)

Always returning -EINVAL does not seem to be the exact error code if
i2c_hid_acpi_pdata fails.

This is something I was wondering when looking at your documentation.
If CONFIG_ACPI is not defined, then 'i2c_hid_acpi_match' does not exists.
Is there some magic within ACPI_PTR if CONFIG_ACPI is not defined, or
should we put the #ifdef around?

Anyway thanks for this job!
