ElkhartLake support was added to the legacy driver a while back (5.3). 
Don't ask me why the hdmi codec id was not added at the time, it was 
indeed a miss.
I chose to send this patch as part of the ASoC series, so that at least 
we have consistency. Takashi, if you prefer it that way feel free to 
take this patch in your tree, but then Mark would need a tag for the 
rest of this series. I agree with Kai that moving forward the hdmi codec 
parts should be better tracked.
Thanks
