Just a wild guess, I can see two ways in which that commit could make a 
difference on your setup:

1)

If any of these is not set in your .config:

+       select SND_HDA_INTEL_DSP_DETECTION_SKL if SND_SOC_INTEL_SKL
+       select SND_HDA_INTEL_DSP_DETECTION_APL if SND_SOC_INTEL_APL
+       select SND_HDA_INTEL_DSP_DETECTION_KBL if SND_SOC_INTEL_KBL
+       select SND_HDA_INTEL_DSP_DETECTION_GLK if SND_SOC_INTEL_GLK
+       select SND_HDA_INTEL_DSP_DETECTION_CNL if SND_SOC_INTEL_CNL
+       select SND_HDA_INTEL_DSP_DETECTION_CFL if SND_SOC_INTEL_CFL

I.e. I'd enable all of the SND_SOC_INTEL_* options to cover this angle.

2)

There's the added logic of checking whether the DSP is enabled:

+       /* check if this driver can be used on SKL+ Intel platforms */
+       if ((pci_id->driver_data & AZX_DCAPS_INTEL_SHARED) &&
+           pci->class != 0x040300)
+               return -ENODEV;
+

if pci->class is not 0x040300 the driver could end up not detecting the 
device while previously it would.

That code goes through several transformations later on - but the hack 
below should make the commit an invariant. I think. Totally untested 
though.

Thanks,

	Ingo
