Are you saying there's a newer series that fixes this issue for both 
allyesconfig and allmodconfig?

if yes, then we're good.

ok, I didn't see the delta

it doesn't but that's not a good enough reason to lay on the tracks. 
I'll follow-up with a cleanup for the Intel audio parts when this series 
is merged. The PCI dependency could be moved to the top-level since it's 
pretty much required for all platforms except for compilation tests, and 
there are multiple dependencies that repeated for no good reason, so FWIW
