Actually, just adding `device acpica5' does NOT link the acpi code
in /sys/dev/acpica5 to kernel at all, but instead it's using older
code from /sys/dev/acpica.
To examine this, look for a function which exists in the newer acpi
code but not in the older code and vice versa, say acpi_cpu_c1() and
acpi_cpu_init_throttling(), in the list output from nm command.

$ nm /kernel | grep ' acpi_cpu_c1' || echo no match
no match

$ nm /kernel | grep ' acpi_cpu_init_throttling' || echo no match
c017735e t acpi_cpu_init_throttling
