This turned out to be already fixed by commit 34084a436703 ("ASoC:
intel: Remove superfluous backslash in Kconfig"), which was added in
v4.0-rc1.

What's the status on 2: and 3:? Is everyone waiting on someone else to
do something? (One thing I remember is that Michal wanted the changes to
the _shipped files separately. Is that correct?)
For my part I still think 2: should go in.
And for 3: I would like to see related changes to Kconfig files
submitted too. But, of course, whether that is actually needed is mostly
Michal's call.
