** Description changed:

- This bug is for tracking purpose.
+ BugLink: https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1900809
+ 
+ [Impact]
+ Intel released the sof-firmware v1.6, and in our oem projects, the
+ Dell TGL machines and the machines with soundwire audio need the
+ new firmware, otherwise they will fail to load the firmware or
+ the audio can't work well.
+ 
+ [Fix]
+ replace the old sof-firmware-v1.4.2 with sof-firmware-v1.6
+ 
+ [Test]
+ Tested on the Dell cml/tgl soundwire machines, all audio functions
+ worked well, and those audio functions didn't work with old firmware.
+ 
+ Tested on Lenovo dimc machines, all audio functions worked as well
+ as before.
+ 
+ [Regression Potential]
+ Intel tested the new firmware with the 5.8 and 5.9 kernel, but we need
+ the new firmware to work with 5.4 and 5.6 kernel as well, so there is
+ some possibility that the 5.4/5.6 kernel can't work well with the new
+ sof-firmware. I have tested the new firmware with 5.4/5.6 kernel on some
+ Lenovo machines, so far no issues were found.
