Is your feature request related to a problem? Please describe.
Huawei laptops ship with an Everest ES8336 sound card that is not supported by sofproject.
Describe the solution you'd like
Adding support for it would be really awesome
Describe alternatives you've considered
I already tried this repo which seems to contain a kernel built with support for it but the audio clearly does not work: https://github.com/himozzza/essx8336
Additional context
Booting Linux and trying lsmod or dmsg shows only one valid HDMI sound output on the laptop and nothing more. Here's what I get from Device Manager on Windows:

ACPI\VEN_ESSX&DEV_8336&SUBSYS_152D1262
ACPI\ESSX8336
*ESSX8336
