Yes, something like that would cover it.  I'm not sure what is idiomatic
for the device tree.

Yes, you could certainly do that - as you say, any device tree based
configuration would be optional so it's not a blocker if some things
aren't supported.

It'd be nice to have some idea of how to handle it should someone want
to do it but I wouldn't think it's essential.  The most common case
where specific ordering is required is that a PLL will need to have all
its inputs configured before the PLL is activated so it'd probably cover
a large proportion of cases to do that last.

Yes, from an ASoC point of view the driver looks good as it is.  The
only discussion is about the PowerPC probing stuff.
