The only time when static devices are [semi-]allowed (Greg has differing
opioon on this I believe) is in platform/arch code for devices that can
never be destroyed.
OK, didn't know that rule.  I honestly thought avoiding the heap
allocation for this driver (which is is stateless: the "device" is
just a single bit of information indicating the presence of three acpi
methods) would be desirable.

Fixed patch 2/2 below.
