x86 firmware descriptions are terrible, it's just an endless procession
of quirks.  The model for ACPI is not to describe key information in the
kernel and instead on Windows load device specific information from
separately supplied tables.  On Linux that translates into these endless
quirks, on Windows it's platform specific drivers for otherwise generic
audio hardware.
