These names (PNPxxxx) are defined in the ACPI scan code, by invoking the _HID
method of the ACPI device. And this PNP id is used to bind to ACPI drivers.
But unfortunately, not all the ACPI devices have such a method.
And some drivers, especially the platform drivers, use certain device/method
name as an indicator to bind the ACPI devices, which is not stated in the ACPI
spec, and beyond the ACPI core code's scope.
For the devices left, "acpi:device" just mean that there is no ACPI driver
associated with any of these devices.
I don't think there is anything useful can be filled here for these devices. :)
Andi, please re-open it if you still have any questions.
