** Description changed:

+ This patchset is already in the upstream kernel-5.6, so no need to
+ send for unstable.
+ And this patchset will remove an existing kernel module and add a new
+ kernel module, so need to change the ABI/modules.ignore manually.
+ The module removed: snd-intel-nhlt.ko
+ The module added:   snd-intel-dspcfg.ko
+ 
+ [Impact]
+ There is already dmic detection code in the eoan and focal kernel, it
+ works well on CNL/WHL and later Intel platforms, but it doesn't work
+ on KBL, SKL and old Intel machines.

+ 
+ [Fix]
+ The upstream kernel updated the dmic detection code, it will exclude the
+ old intel machines by default. Then the old machines will use legacy hda
+ driver like before.
+ 
+ [Test Case]
+ Install the testing kernel to Dell/LENOVO WHL/CNL and later machines,
+ they work as well as before.
+ 
+ And a user verifed the testing kernel work on his KBL machine.
+ https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/linux/+bug/1869799/comments/17
+ 
+ [Regression Risk]
+ Low, those patches come from mainline kernel, I have tested those patches
+ on the WHL/CNL and later machiens, a user tested it on a KBL machine.
