[Sound-open-firmware] Machine drivers for SOF/non-SOF Intel configurations

Hello,

As far as I understand Intel uses the same machine drivers for SOF/non-SOF configurations.

I don't exactly understand how this works.

1) Can SOF/non-SOF sound cards co-exist? 2) In SOF the DAI is managed by the FW, how one prevents Linux DAI driver to be loaded in SOF. 3) Is there any SOF related information in ACPI tables.

I am still trying to wrap my head around the idea implemented in sof-acpi-dev.c to make it work in the same way for sof-of-dev.c so sorry if the questions are not clear.

thanks, Daniel.
