[ Upstream commit 644eebdbbf1154c995d6319c133d7d5b898c5ed2 ] Intel machine drivers are used by parent platform drivers based on closed-source firmware (Atom/SST and catpt) and SOF-based ones. In some cases for ACPI-based platforms, the behavior of machine drivers needs to be modified depending on the parent type, typically for card names and power management. An initial solution based on passing a boolean flag as a platform device parameter was tested earlier. Since it looked overkill, this patch suggests instead a simple string comparison to identify an SOF parent device/driver.
