The point of ACPI is *not* to describe a DT topology using a table 
format that is not suited for it. The point of ACPI is to describe a 
machine that is more abstracted from the hardware than is typically 
possible with DT, where the abstractions are implemented by AML code 
that is provided by the firmware, but executed in the context of the OS.

So the idea is *not* finding the shortest possible path to get your 
existing DT driver code running on a system that boots via ACPI. 
Instead, you should carefully think about the abstract ACPI machine that 
you will expose to the OS, and hide everything else in firmware.

In this particular case, it seems like your USB, SDHC and SATA device 
objects may need power state dependent AML methods that program this 
block directly.
