I tested it for my case and it seems to work fine so far. I'm fine with this solution given that it fixes the problem I mentioned. We would need to patch it into at least simple-audio-card.c, audio-graph-card.c and soc/qcom/common.c (probably best to create a shared function in soc-core.c then). However, personally I still think that dpcm_playback/capture essentially just duplicate the capabilities that are already exposed as part of the DAI drivers. We don't need that duplication in the non-DPCM case, so I wonder if we really need it for DPCM. With your diff we go over all the DAIs to set dpcm_playback/capture correctly so that soc_new_pcm() can then verify that they were set correctly. IMO it would be much simpler to restore the previous behavior and just make soc_new_pcm() rely on the DAI capabilities to decide if playback/capture is supported, without producing the error.
