Sorry about confusing you, I think it is better to change the title as
ASoC: Intel: sof_nau8825: add combination of nau8825 headset codec
with nau8318 Amp.

And add some information about Nuvoton chips in the comment message.
***
The nau8315 and nau8318 are both Nuvoton Amp chips. They use the same
Amp driver nau8315.c. The acpi_device_id for nau8315 is "NVTN2010",
for nau8318 is "NVTN2012".
The nau8825 is one of Nuvoton headset codec, and its acpi_device_id is
"10508825".

The NAU8825 Is headset codec, we added a new combination of nau8825
headset codec + nau8318 amp in the machine driver.

Because the Amp driver is the same file nau8315.c , so nau8318 use the
same dai_name "nau8315-hifi"
