The point is that it might turn into a more correct binding
depending on what the S/PDIF device actually is.

There's *never* an object on the board called a "dummy codec".

Oh, is that what you're talking about?  Yes, that makes sense.  I had
been responding to the comments about the transceivers.

I'll remove the 'dummy' words in the next version from the binding doc.

I think the word "CODEC" is also problematic in this context, since
whatever is connector to the S/PDIF output path may not be a CODEC.
That's why I suggested some more generic property names that IIRC
concentrated on enabling rx/tx rather than indicating what was actually
connected to the S/PDIF controller.
