you probably want to make sure VHOST_SOF and SND_SOC_SOF are both 
built-in or module. Without constraints you are likely to trigger errors 
with randconfig. It's a classic.

I am struggling with this definition, it seems to be a local flag but 
how is it aligned to the actual DSP status?
In other words, can you have cases where the dsp is considered 'active' 
here but might be pm_runtime suspended?
I am sure you've thought of it based on previous threads, it'd be worth 
adding comments.

can you explain why this is not symmetrical with _activate above: there 
is no rmpsg communication here?

All cases seem to use return, so the the code below seems to be the 
default: case?

This is rather convoluted code, with the same function called on both 
sides of a comparison.

posn_addr is defined as a u32, so what are you trying to test here?

that also seems suspicious:

+	/* RPMsg address of the position update endpoint */
+	u32 posn_addr;

why would a length which should have different values have anything to 
do with a constant 4 bytes?

and again here?

is there a case where you can get a position update without the dsp 
being active?
And shouldn't this be an error?
