YueHiabing, can you share the config and SHA1 so that we can double check?

If the problem persists, we can do something like

config SND_SOF_NOCODEC_SUPPORT
	bool "SOF nocodec mode support"

config SND_SOF_NOCODEC
	tristate

confir SND_SOC_SOF
	tristate
	select SND_SOF_NOCODEC if SND_SOF_NOCODEC_SUPPORT

that way you propagate the required dependencies
