There is also something specific to audio, the slots definition
'dai-tdm-slot-tx-mask' and 'dai-tdm-slot-rx-mask'. These slots definitions
are set at the ALSA sound card sub-nodes.
So, I can have multiple codec in the PEF2256.

For instance:
  framer {
    compatible = "lantiq,pef2256", "simple-mfd";
    ...
    pef2256_codec0: codec0 {
      compatible = "lantiq,pef2256-codec";
      #sound-dai-cells = <0>;
    };
    pef2256_codec1: codec1 {
      compatible = "lantiq,pef2256-codec";
      #sound-dai-cells = <0>;
    };
  };

  sound {
    compatible = "simple-audio-card";
    #address-cells = <1>;
    #size-cells = <0>;
    simple-audio-card,dai-link@0 { /* CPU DAI1 - pef2256 codec 1 */
      reg = <0>;
      cpu {
        sound-dai = <&cpu_dai1>;
      };
      codec {
        sound-dai = <&pef2256_codec0>;
	dai-tdm-slot-num = <4>;
	dai-tdm-slot-width = <8>;
	/* TS 2, 3, 4, 5 */
	dai-tdm-slot-tx-mask = <0 1 1 1 1>;
	dai-tdm-slot-rx-mask = <0 1 1 1 1>;
      };
    simple-audio-card,dai-link@1 { /* CPU DAI2 - pef2256 codec 2 */
      reg = <1>;
      cpu {
        sound-dai = <&cpu_dai2>;
      };
      codec {
	sound-dai = <&pef2256_codec1>;
	dai-tdm-slot-num = <4>;
	dai-tdm-slot-width = <8>;
	/* TS 6, 7, 8, 9 */
	dai-tdm-slot-tx-mask = <0 0 0 0 0 1 1 1 1>;
	dai-tdm-slot-rx-mask = <0 0 0 0 0 1 1 1 1>;
      };
    };
  };

To solve this, I can use #sound-dai-cells = <1>; but this will complicate
the driver itself and is it really needed ?
Having "simple-mfd" dans sub-nodes keep all things simple.

Hervé
