** Description changed:

- This bug is for tracking.
+ For focal and oem-5.6 kernel, these all 5 patches are needed, for
+ groovy kernel, since the 1st patch is already in the 5.8 kernel, the
+ groovy kernel only needs the last 3 patches [3/5, 4/5 and 5/5].
+ 
+ [Impact]
+ the alsa upstream worte the ucm3 files for amd renoir audio, but to
+ load the ucm3, it depends on the kernel module name, and the upstream
+ ucm3 needs the name snd-xxx, so we need to backport the patches
+ from mainline kernel to change the kernel module name to meet ucm3
+ requirement. BTW, there are some dmic dynamically detection patches,
+ we integrate them too.
+ 
+ [Fix]
+ Backport 4 patches from upstream.
+ 
+ [Test Case]
+ boot the kernel with these patches on amd renoir machines (lenovo
+ machines), the audio driver works well (via command line like
+ aplay or areord), then upgrade the alsa-lib and alsa-ucm-conf to
+ 1.2.3.2, now we could see the audio devices from gnome, and they work
+ well.
+ 
+ [Regression Risk]
+ Low, this SRU are only specific to soc/amd/renoir, and we already
+ tested on 2 lenovo machines, their audio worked as before.
