Instead of this, why not match against the DT compatible property?
Name (_HID, "PRP0001")
Name (_DSD, Package () {
ToUUID("daffd814-6eba-4d8c-8a91-bc9bbf4aa301"),
Package () {
Package (2) {"compatible", "your-dt-compatible-string"},
}
})
This all will be done for you automatically with zero changes in the
