That's a problem if the kernel does not know which amplifier is on which
side, no? How would one change the balance if this information is known
only within a binary/opaque firmware?

The notion of endpoint is completely half-baked today and the settings
used have no bearing on the behavior and user-experience. I am inches
away from sending a patch that removes all of the endpoint definitions,
we can re-add them if/when we can get the information from platform
firmware.

IIRC this name_prefix is just used for the codec_conf and hence for
control names/UCM. At some point userspace/driver need to know if amp5
is left or right.
We can certainly align on conventions but the values set in this ACPI
match table will not be used for firmware download - different scope.
