It's Monday morning and my memory is still foggy but I think we fixed
this problem with https://github.com/thesofproject/linux/pull/3180,
where we changed the Kconfigs for i.MX. We haven't sent this update
upstream for some reason.

Arnd, can you share the configuration that breaks with the existing
upstream code, I can check if the problem still exists.

Thanks!
