Subject: RE: [RFC][PATCH] ASoC: simple-card: Merge single and muti DAI link
code.
Hi Jyri,
I'll follow Mark's advice of maintaining compatibility with the old DTs.
Thanks very much for your comments, and this is very important for me.
And I will also update the binding documet for simple card, please help
me review it, any comment and advice are welcome.
The goal is to simplify the simple card code and make it more readable and
Easier to add muti DAI links support from the single DAI link DTs, this will
Be very useful on my LS1+ SoCs in the future.
BRs
