Thanks Takashi. If everyone who has been impacted by this issue can send
me privately the result of the following two commands it'd help us
figure out which machines expose the DSP - we may ask for additional
information, e.g. NHLT tables. We clearly need to widen the validation
scope since there is obviously a disconnect between what 3rd party BIOS
expose and the technical consensus within Intel audio teams. Thanks in
advance for your time.

lspci -s 0:1f.3 -vn

more /sys/bus/pci/devices/0000\:00\:1f.3/class (should return 0x040100
or 0x040380, if the value is 0x040300 then the DSP is not exposed)

(replace 1f.3 with 0e.0 for ApolloLake/GeminiLake)
