It generally is not OK to use acpi_status and/or AE_ error codes
without CONFIG_ACPI and they really only should be used in
drivers/acpi/ (and not everywhere in there for that matter).
So acpi_get_physical_device_location() needs to be redefined to return
something different from acpi_status (preferably bool) in order to be
used in !CONFIG_ACPI code.

When ACPI table includes _PLD fields for a device, create a new
directory (physical_location) in sysfs to share _PLD fields.
Currently without PLD information, when there are multiple of same
devices, it is hard to distinguish which device corresponds to which
physical device at which location. For example, when there are two Type
C connectors, it is hard to find out which connector corresponds to the
Type C port on the left panel versus the Type C port on the right panel.
With PLD information provided, we can determine which specific device at
which location is doing what.
_PLD output includes much more fields, but only generic fields are added
and exposed to sysfs, so that non-ACPI devices can also support it in
the future. The minimal generic fields needed for locating a device are
the following.
- panel
- vertical_position
- horizontal_position
- dock
- lid
