ACPI: Allow ACPI handles of devices to be initialized in advance

Currently, the ACPI handles of devices are initialized from within
device_add(), by acpi_bind_one() called from acpi_platform_notify()
which first uses the .find_device() routine provided by the device's
bus type to find the matching device node in the ACPI namespace.
This is a source of some computational overhead and, moreover, the
correctness of the result depends on the implementation of
.find_device() which is known to fail occasionally for some bus types
(e.g. PCI).  In some cases, however, the corresponding ACPI device
node is known already before calling device_add() for the given
struct device object and the whole .find_device() dance in
acpi_platform_notify() is then simply unnecessary.

For this reason, make it possible to initialize the ACPI handles of
devices before calling device_add() for them.  Modify
acpi_platform_notify() to call acpi_bind_one() in advance to check
the device's existing ACPI handle and skip the .find_device()
search if that is successful.  Change acpi_bind_one() accordingly.
