[ Upstream commit e1681599345b8466786b6e54a2db2a00a068a3f3 ]
acpi_lpss_create_device() skips handling LPSS devices which do not have a mmio resources in their resource list (typically these devices are disabled by the firmware). But since the LPSS code does not bind to the device, acpi_bus_attach() ends up still creating a platform device for it and the regular platform_driver for the ACPI HID still tries to bind to it.
This happens e.g. on some boards which do not use the pwm-controller and have an empty or invalid resource-table for it. Currently this causes these error messages to get logged:
[ 3.281966] pwm-lpss 80862288:00: invalid resource [ 3.287098] pwm-lpss: probe of 80862288:00 failed with error -22
This commit stops the undesirable creation of a platform_device for disabled LPSS devices by setting pnp.type.platform_id to 0. Note that acpi_scan_attach_handler() also sets pnp.type.platform_id to 0 when there is a matching handler for the device and that handler has no attach callback, so we simply behave as a handler without an attach function in this case.
