The implementation looks pretty fixed, it seems like a lot would break
if that were changed, so the callers of the function would need to be
updated, including this one.  The ternary below is already paranoid
enough to handle an API change, but if you want to add one more level
of paranoia, you could use WARN_ON(!vdev->acpihid) to make it user
visible.  It could still be done as:

return WARN_ON(!vdev->acpihid) ? -ENOENT : 0;
