This change itself looks fine and I quickly tested, so:
Reviewed-by: John Garry <john.garry@huawei.com>

However Yang Yingliang spotted a pre-existing bug in the ACPI probe and 
sent a fix today (coincidence?):

https://lore.kernel.org/lkml/20220701094352.2104998-1-yangyingliang@huawei.com/T/#u

And they conflict. This code has been this way for years, so I just 
suggest Yang Yingliang resends the fix on top off Rafael's change.

Thanks,
John
