Maybe this is the the same problem Linus (Cc'ed) hit recently, too?

A regression with Dell XPS is that, because the device has PCI class
0x4380 (which implies that DSP is available), now we skip the binding
with the legacy driver and let go with ASoC.

Meanwhile, ASoC driver requires either the specific machine driver for
the specific configuration or the binding with the legacy codec
drivers.  Dell XPS is the latter, and this failed due to the lack of
iDisplay connection.

Hans, is yours also the same case?  Please check whether which driver
was used in the earlier kernel.  If it's snd-hda-intel in the past,
the above is the likely scenario.


thanks,

Takashi
