The 1st patch is already in the oem-b-osp1 kernel, only needs to
merge the 2nd patch.

For focal and eoan kernels, they need to merge 2 patches.

For bionic and oem-b kernels, because they don't support sof driver
and these 2 machines are dmic machines, so no need to merge these 2
patches.

[Impact]
There are 2 physical speakers on the X1 7th, and one is Bass speaker
and connect to a DAC which doesn't have volume control on it.

[Fix]
adjust that speaker to connect to a DAC which has volume control
capability.


[Test Case]
adjust the output volume from UI and play sound from speaker.


[Regression Risk]
Low, these change is specific to 2 lenovo machines.
