Instead of this, why not match against the DT compatible property?
Name (_HID, "PRP0001")
Name (_DSD, Package () { ToUUID("daffd814-6eba-4d8c-8a91-bc9bbf4aa301"), Package () { Package (2) {"compatible", "your-dt-compatible-string"}, } })
This all will be done for you automatically with zero changes in the code.
