Ok, here is just one more simple alternative for tda998x audio binding.
I feel that the graph ports binding for audio does not make sense
without a graph based ASoC machine driver implementation. The ASoC
simple-card is already here and it so widely used that there is no
getting rid of that any time soon. This proposal provides the same
functionality as the patch in the root of this thread, but in a simpler
way and is equally compatible with simple-card.

Hi Jyri,

The graph port binding for the tda998x works fine with the simple card
driver when multi-codec support is added. See
http://mailman.alsa-project.org/pipermail/alsa-devel/2015-January/085855.html

I know that it works, I have used it myself until now, but it is not 
needed and there is no driver that parses audio port endpoints. I see no 
point specifying something in the binding that is not used and there no 
specific plan to ever use it.

AFAIU my proposed binding should work equally well with simple-card, 
with or without multi-codec support.

Best regards,
Jyri
