OK.

OK.

Actually, I think that the bus (devfreq) should resume before mixer. However,
suspend/resume order is another issue that applies to this driver regardless of
using the interconnect framework, although device links could probably also be
implemented in the interconnect framework itself.

It is definitely not an error when 'parent' does not exist in DT (for buses that
are parents themselves). I can extend the comment in the code to explicitly
state that.
