Use common routines in drivers/acpi/resource.c to parse ACPI device
resources while creating platform device objects.

Using _UID makes the ACPI platform bus code depend on BIOS to get it
right. If it doesn't we fail to create the platform device as the name
should be unique.
The ACPI core already makes a unique name when it first creates the ACPI
device so we can use that same name as the platform device name instead of
trusting that the BIOS sets the _UIDs correctly.

With ACPI 5 it is now possible to enumerate traditional SoC
peripherals, like serial bus controllers and slave devices behind
them. These devices are typically based on IP-blocks used in many
existing SoC platforms and platform drivers for them may already
be present in the kernel tree.
To make driver "porting" more straightforward, add ACPI support to
the platform bus type. Instead of writing ACPI "glue" drivers for
the existing platform drivers, register the platform bus type with
ACPI to create platform device objects for the drivers and bind the
corresponding ACPI handles to those platform devices.
This should allow us to reuse the existing platform drivers for the
devices in question with the minimum amount of modifications.
This changeset is based on Mika Westerberg's and Mathias Nyman's
work.
