I think the problem has been around for a very long time. I can't figure
out what we tried to fix and why the Kconfig is written this way.

We already have this:

config SND_SOC_SOF_INTEL_SOUNDWIRE
	tristate "SOF support for SoundWire"
	default SND_SOC_SOF_INTEL_SOUNDWIRE_LINK_BASELINE
	depends on SND_SOC_SOF_INTEL_SOUNDWIRE_LINK_BASELINE
	depends on ACPI && SOUNDWIRE
	depends on !(SOUNDWIRE=m && SND_SOC_SOF_INTEL_SOUNDWIRE_LINK_BASELINE=y)

We're doing something wrong here if both of the Kconfigs make references
to the value of the other.

The only requirement here is that we want to be able to build if
SoundWire is not enabled. We have a similar requirement for HDaudio, but
for some reason it's only a boolean for HDaudio and a tristate for
SoundWire. I have no idea if it was intentional or not, it's been too
much time already since we looked at this....
