The diff tells me all this. Please explain why this is needed and needs
to be in DT here.

EUD? TPDM?
I don't really love 'dummy' used here. Maybe the OS still wants/needs to
know where the sink goes to even if not configurable.
You *can* have multiple compatibles for a single generic driver if those
compatibles might be useful some day.

Don't use '_' in node names.
Convention for multiple instances without 'reg' is '-[0-9]+' on the end,
but you are allowing anything after that.

Incorporate source or sink into the compatible strings.
It's also somewhat redundant with 'in-ports' vs. 'out-ports'.

Don't need '|' unless you need to preserve formatting.
