Isn't the module enough ?
Why should we had some intel audio driver into arm64 GENERIC when the only possible ways to have this is either using "Parallels Desktop on Apple M1 Macs" or plugins some compatible pci card into a random board ?
We have a module for this, that should be enough.
This will "just work" out of the box on x86, we should have parity on arm64.
I prefer having sound loaded as a module in fact, but until we have module autoloading by PCI ID this should be available in GENERIC.

As I understand it, this is a task for devmatch(8) and MODULE_PNP_INFO(9). snd_hda should be changed to add PNP_INFO support, like this: https://reviews.freebsd.org/D15996#change-lBKZ4iN90pMD
