A router component can be added as an auxiliary device to the sound card
to help with audio routing across multiple components. DPCM dai links
use CPU<->Dummy or Dummy<->Codec style of links in simple-card driver and
hence do not have required DAI connections by default. Usually machine
driver can do the necessary mapping.
But if there is a crossbar switch HW which can connect multiple components,
it is expected to provide required user space configurability via MUX
controls. In such a case the crossbar can be represented as an independent
component and can be added as an auxiliary device. The exposed routing
interfaces can be used by other components in the system, thus probing it
first can avoid probe failures.
