In a x86 machine, an additional device can be described
inside the BIOS ACPI tables.
For example, an I2C GPIO expander, a LED, etc.,
can be successfully declared in ACPI, so that the related
device driver can start automatically at the boot.

But for the SPI NOR devices, the ACPI description works
for JEDEC-compatible devices only.

For example, an Everspin MR25H40 MRAM device (non-JEDEC
compatible), declared using the following table,
does not work:

    Scope (\_SB.SPI1)
    {
        Device (NVR0)
        {
            Name (_HID, "PRP0001")
            Name (_DDN, "Everspin MR25H40 MRAM")
            Name (_CRS, ResourceTemplate () {
                SpiSerialBus (
                1,                      // Chip select
                PolarityLow,            // Chip select is active low
                FourWireMode,           // Full duplex
                8,                      // Bits per word is 8 (byte)
                ControllerInitiated,    // Don't care
                10000000,               // 10 MHz
                ClockPolarityLow,       // SPI mode 0 ClockPolarityLow
                ClockPhaseFirst,        // SPI mode 0 ClockPhaseFirst
                "\\_SB.SPI1",           // SPI host controller
                0,                      // Must be 0
                ResourceConsumer,
                ,
                )
            })

            Name (_DSD, Package () {
                ToUUID("daffd814-6eba-4d8c-8a91-bc9bbf4aa301"),
                Package () {
                    Package () {"compatible", "mr25h40"},
                }
            })
        }
    }

To enable the detection of a non-JEDEC device described
in a BIOS ACPI table, it is necessary to add its id name
in the spi_nor_of_table structure.
With this change, all the SPI NOR devices (JEDEC and
non-JEDEC) can be detected by the kernel (and the above
example of ACPI table finally works).
