** Description changed:

- This bug is for tracking purpose.
+ [Impact]
+ In the ubuntu 20.04, we plan to integrate sof-firmware v1.4.2, the
+ topology of this version contains volume and led control, we need
+ to add this support in the sof driver, otherwise the sof will crash
+ when parsing the topology of v1.4.2.  After adding these patches,
+ the sof still coudl work with topology without volume and led control.
+ 
+ [Fix]
+ Backported the patches from mainline kernel v5.5-c1
+ 
+ [Test Case]
+ Install the sof-firmware v1.4.2
+ boot the kernel with these patches, sof driver initializes successfully,
+ and we could get a working sound card after booting up.
+ 
+ Install the sof-firmware v1.3.1
+ boot the kernel with these patches, sof driver initializes successfully,
+ and we could get a working sound card after booting up.
+ 
+ [Regression Risk]
+ Low, the patches are backported from upstream kernel, and I tested
+ this patch on Lenovo and Dell dmic machines.
