Since acpi_evaluate_object() returns acpi_status and not plain int, ACPI_FAILURE() should be used for checking its return value. Also add some detailed debug info when acpi_evaluate_object() failed.

I said "too bad there isn't an *easy* way" to include more information. IMHO this is too ugly and error-prone to use consistently. And if you are going to add more information, why did you only do it for some of the calls and not others?
I considered adding a %p extension to print the pathname; I don't know if that's worthwhile or not. I think it would be ideal if we had a struct device and could use dev_info(), and then a way to connect the struct device with an ACPI path, like maybe a dmesg note when we create the struct device corresponding to an ACPI Device node.
Well, we can generally print something like that from pci_acpi_setup().
What about the below? Wouldn't it generate too much output on some systems?
Yeah, that probably would generate an awful lot of output. I was just hoping to avoid treating ACPI pathnames as first-class objects. What do you think about a %p extension? I played with that once, but I seem to have lost the patch.
Well, it may be worth doing. However, that information is readily available from sysfs anyway, you only need to follow the firmware_node link in the PCI device's sysfs directory and read the path attribute from there. For example, on my system:
$ cat /sys/devices/pci0000:00/0000:00:1c.4/0000:0b:00.0/firmware_node/path _SB_.PCI0.RP05.PXSX
That's perfect. If we had a struct device, we could just use dev_info() for these messages. But I have no idea how hard it would be to get at the struct device.
From the pci_dev side that is trivial: use ACPI_COMPANION(). The other way
around is rather more difficult as browsing a list would be involved.
