The original commit deleted CONFIG_ACPI_DEBUG_FUNC_TRACE from acmacros.h as it is in the __wrong__ place.
CONFIG_xxx is linux specific codes thus should appear in OSL layer - aclinux.h.
ACPICA specific codes should only use selective definitions in #ifdef ACPI_xxx style and such codes should be merged into ACPICA rather than being merged into Linux ACPI.

Now we have two choices:
Re-implement it in the aclinux.h using "ACPI_DEBUG_OUTPUT" defined/undefined or delete this kernel configuration item temporarily.
