Notice that all of the objects for which the acpi_scan_check_dep() return value is greater than 0 are present in acpi_dep_list as consumers (there may be multiple entries for one object, but that is not a problem), so after carrying out the initial ACPI namespace walk in which devices with dependencies are skipped, acpi_bus_scan() can simply walk acpi_dep_list and enumerate all of the unique consumer objects from there and their descendants instead of walking the entire target branch of the ACPI namespace and looking for device objects that have not been enumerated yet in it. Because walking acpi_dep_list is generally less overhead than walking the entire ACPI namespace, use the observation above to reduce the system initialization overhead related to ACPI, which is particularly important on large systems.

README
Linux kernel
============
There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.
In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``. The formatted documentation can also be read online at:
https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/
There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.
Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
