Hi Keyon,
The machine_quirk may return NULL which means the acpi entries should be skipped and search for next matched entry is needed, here add return check here and continue for NULL case.
Nice catch, this was missed in the other patchset since the ACPI ID to ignore was the last in the table...

I was wondering if this patch was merged, but actually it's good Mark wasn't copied on this one: the code doesn't quite work as intended and shouldn't be merged as is.
Chintan and I see an oops and reboot on KBL Chromebooks, when the quirk returns NULL, the mach variable becomes NULL and cannot be modified with pointer arithmetic (which doesn't show with the diff format).
It's very likely btw that anyone trying a recent kernel on these devices would not see the audio driver probe at all, so we do want to try other entries - but of course without this nasty side effect. I will submit a v2 when I've sorted out other problems on Chrome.
Thanks
