ACPI: identify device tree root by null parent pointer, not ACPI_BUS_TYPE

Browse source

We can identify the root of the ACPI device tree by the fact that it
has no parent.  This is simpler than passing around ACPI_BUS_TYPE_SYSTEM
and will help remove special treatment of the device tree root.

Currently, we add the root by hand with ACPI_BUS_TYPE_SYSTEM.  If we
traverse the tree treating the root as just another device and use
acpi_get_type(), the root shows up as ACPI_TYPE_DEVICE.
