spi: spidev: Add ACPI probing support

Browse Source 
Some IoT and maker software stacks are using spidev to perform raw access
to the SPI bus instead of relying existing drivers provided by the kernel.
They then implement their own "drivers" in userspace on top of the spidev
raw interface. This is far from being an ideal solution but we do not want
to prevent using mainline Linux in these devices.

Now, it turns out that Windows has similar SPI devices than spidev which
allow raw access on the SPI bus to userspace programs as described in the
link below:

  https://msdn.microsoft.com/windows/hardware/drivers/spb/spi-tests-in-mitt

These SPI test devices are also meant to be used during development and
testing.

In order to allow usage of spidev for development and testing in Linux, add
those same ACPI IDs to the spidev driver (which is Linux counterpart of the
Windows SPI test devices), but complain loudly so that users know it is not
good idea to use it in production systems. Instead they should be using
proper drivers for peripherals connected to the SPI bus.
