soundwire/SOF: add SoundWire Interface support for
Merge series from Vijendar Mukunda <Vijendar.Mukunda@amd.com>: This patch series is to redesign existing platform device creation logic for SoundWire managers and Implement generic functions for SoundWire manager probe, start and exit sequence which are common for both Legacy (NO DSP enabled) and SOF stack, and add SoundWire Interface support for AMD SOF stack (ACP 6.3 based platform). The patch series was reviewed in https://github.com/thesofproject/linux/pull/4699
