Add HDMI codec vid for the Intel ElkhartLake platform
I suppose this can go through ASoC tree unless HDA legacy driver
supports the device.
hmm, good point. In short, both DSP and non-DSP usage continue to be
possible, so HDA legacy driver can be used as well. This is a (positive)
new problem of SOF now using common codec driver for HDMI. The patch got
merged already (and I think this is ok as we specifically enable and test
HDMI with the ASoC stack), but maybe in the future we can send these codec
driver patches directly, and not via ASoC.
ElkhartLake support was added to the legacy driver a while back (5.3).
Don't ask me why the hdmi codec id was not added at the time, it was
indeed a miss.
I chose to send this patch as part of the ASoC series, so that at least
we have consistency. Takashi, if you prefer it that way feel free to
take this patch in your tree, but then Mark would need a tag for the
rest of this series. I agree with Kai that moving forward the hdmi codec
parts should be better tracked.
