In all cases in which a struct acpi_driver is used for binding a driver to an ACPI device object, a corresponding platform device is created by the ACPI core and that device is regarded as a proper representation of underlying hardware. Accordingly, a struct platform_driver should be used by driver code to bind to that device. There are multiple reasons why drivers should not bind directly to ACPI device objects [1]. Overall, it is better to bind drivers to platform devices than to their ACPI companions, so convert the hwmon ACPI power meter driver to a platform one. After this change, the subordinate hwmon device will be registered under the platform device representing the ACPI power meter, sysfs notifications will trigger on that device, and diagnostic messages will be printed relative to it instead of its ACPI companion.
