I understand why you're doing it but that feature is intended for the use of cards when they're integrating components, not for devices trying to register multiple components on the same device. This means that a card that tries to use the feature will conflict with what the driver is doing, but like I say there's no obvious use case for a card doing that. > Instead of addressing the debugfs side effect, maybe we could just make > sure that each component name is unique within ASoC ?
