I am wondering if there would be some better way to select the dai-link
configuration than writing it to DT or creating a custom machine driver for
each setup.

Continuing this tought. I wonder if it would be better to introduce a new
compatible match for each new card, with some clever way to manage the
accumulating matches in the code, and hard code DAI-link configurations for
each match. This way the old configurations would not be carved to stone in
the old dtbs.

I would prefer that, yes - if only for override capability.

As there is a proper way to deal with this, I'll look into that first.
However, if there still is a need for these properties I am happy to finish
the patch.

OK, a proper fix is of course better.  Might be worth looking at tooling
to make it easier to find/use but IIRC there's not a lot doing there.
