The ACPI bindings are present in the driver. Have the ACPI ID MRVL000E tied here
and the resources are fetched from the ACPI table.

static const struct acpi_device_id pem_pmu_acpi_match[] = {
	{"MRVL000E", 0},
	{},
};
MODULE_DEVICE_TABLE(acpi, pem_pmu_acpi_match);

base = devm_platform_get_and_ioremap_resource(pdev, 0, &res);

 These header files are not needed. I will remove them in the next version.
