In commit 32c9c06adb5b ("ASoC: mediatek: disable buffer pre-allocation")
buffer pre-allocation was disabled to accommodate newer platforms that
have a limited reserved memory region for the audio frontend.

Turns out disabling pre-allocation across the board impacts platforms
that don't have this reserved memory region. Buffer allocation failures
have been observed on MT8173 and MT8183 based Chromebooks under low
memory conditions, which results in no audio playback for the user.

Reinstate the original policy of pre-allocating audio buffers at probe
time on MT8173, MT8183, and MT8186 platforms. These platforms do not
have reserved memory for the audio frontend.

Fixes: 32c9c06adb5b ("ASoC: mediatek: disable buffer pre-allocation")

Have you tried to add the reserved memory regions to the MT8173/83/86 AFE?

This means not only devicetree but also the driver - that should be simple
enough, and would allow to eventually add a layer of further commonization
between the AFE PCM drivers of all those MediaTek SoCs.

Cheers,
Angelo
