If that is true, would it be possible to move the call to
sdw_intel_acpi_scan() out of these drivers and one layer
higher where the dependency actually is?

I was indeed wondering whether the intel-dsp-config.c is just
another layering violation: this is another generic piece
of code that seems to contain too much knowledge about
specific hardware implementations.

Maybe something like this:

config SND_SOC_SOF_INTEL_SOUNDWIRE
-        bool "SOF support for SoundWire"
+       tristate "SOF support for SoundWire"
-       depends on SOUNDWIRE && ACPI
+       depends on SND_SOC_SOF_INTEL_SOUNDWIRE_LINK_BASELINE
+       depends on SOUNDWIRE
+       depends on ACPI
+       depends on !(SOUNDWIRE=m && SND_SOC_SOF_INTEL_SOUNDWIRE_LINK_BASELINE=y)
+       select SOUNDWIRE_INTEL

I have not tried it, but that should keep it all in one place.

I have no specific attachment to my patch, this was just what I came up
with to fix the build regression locally.
