Because the windows drivers from Lenovo have those values hardcoded into
them.

Seems that Cirrus Logic generally expects these properties to be in the
ACPI tables even for Windows. Sounds like missing properties is an issue
in "older" laptop models. I don't think my model is very old, but could
be that the work on it started earlier.

The properties are specific to a given laptop model and having the wrong
values could physically damage your speakers. Before I knew this, I hard
coded the values into a kernel patch and managed to get my own sound
working. Fortunately, my speakers are fine.

I certainly don't know how, but perhaps the drivers could be reverse engineered 
to discover the values of the properties for a given model, and then you could 
override the DSDT like this to get your sound working:
https://wiki.debian.org/OverridingDSDT

IIRC, you could then use the Intel HDA early patching to set your laptop
to use the quirk of another laptop that uses the cs35l41 quirk so you
could get sound working without any changes at all to the kernel to get
your sound working.
