This patch is now commit d2cd795c4ece ("ALSA: hda - fixup for the bass
speaker on Lenovo Carbon X1 7th gen"). There was then followup commit
86353aa70ed0 ("ALSA: hda/realtek - Add quirk for the bass speaker on
Lenovo Yoga X1 7th gen").
As a result of those, the maximum sound output level on my laptop
reduced to ~60% of what it used to be.
Moreover, the quirk name is inaccurate. I have a "ThinkPad X1 Carbon
7th" (as confirmed by dmidecode) and its audio device id is:
Subsystem: Lenovo Cannon Point-LP High Definition Audio Controller [17aa:2292]
but the patches list:
SND_PCI_QUIRK(0x17aa, 0x2292, "Thinkpad X1 Yoga 7th", ALC285_FIXUP_SPEAKER2_TO_DAC1),
SND_PCI_QUIRK(0x17aa, 0x2293, "Thinkpad X1 Carbon 7th", ALC295_FIXUP_DISABLE_DAC3),
(notice the mixup of id 0x2292).
Applying the following diff brings the volume back to previous levels
and brings functional volume control:

I can send a patch to fix the problems for my laptop but then I don't
know what's up for other devices that built on
ALC285_FIXUP_SPEAKER2_TO_DAC1.
