[ Upstream commit a864e8f159b13babf552aff14a5fbe11abc017e4 ] Multiple bug reports report issues with the SOF and SST drivers when dealing with single microphone cases. We currently read the DMIC array information unconditionally but we don't check that the configuration type is actually a mic array. When the DMIC link does not rely on a mic array configuration, the recommendation is to check the format information to infer the maximum number of channels, and map this to the number of microphones. This leaves a potential for a mismatch between actual microphones available in hardware and what the ACPI table contains, but we have no other source of information. Note that single microphone configurations can alternatively be handled with a 'mic array' configuration along with a 'vendor-defined' geometry.

Linux kernel
============
There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.
In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``. The formatted documentation can also be read online at:
https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/
There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.
Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
