Looks fine to me.

One question - is it expected that matching ACPI data nodes is always
case insensitive?
That would not be a correct expectation in theory, although I don't think it
really matters in practice.
From my reading of the Hierarchical Data Extension and ACPI Spec, I thought
that was the case (section 19.3.1 ASL Names - ASL names are not case-sensitive
and will be converted to upper case). Am I misreading the documents/missing
something else?
Those are names in the ASL code itself.

What we are talking here are actually just string values (name of the
data node).
