I think Catalin is referring to ACPI_HANDLE used without any #ifdefs

Catalin, few macros like ACPI_HANDLE and ACPI_PTR are defined in
include/linux/acpi.h even when CONFIG_ACPI is not set mainly to
avoid #ifdef's around simple assignments like the above one and one
in platform_driver.acpi_match_table
