That's a failure of the ACPI headers not having empty function
declarations. The DT functions do...

Also, this is just a broken assumption:

#ifdef CONFIG_ACPI

#else
// Assume DT
#endif

Both ACPI and DT can be enabled at the same time. They may be mutually
exclusive for a platform, but not the kernel. For distro kernels, both
will be enabled typically if the arch supports both. On arm64, DT is
never disabled because the boot interface is always DT.

Furthermore, this makes compile testing your code difficult. The arm64
defconfig, allmodconfig and allyesconfig all will not build the DT
code. The same for x86. This means all the CI builds that happen can't
build test this.
