Yes, it should be disabled if pnpacpi is enabled. The only concern is
motherboard.c also request some ACPI resources, which might not declaim
in ACPI motherboard device, but it's completely BIOS dependent. We might
could try remove it at -mm tree to see if it breaks any system later.

For detecting PNP device? it's worthy trying.
