I proposed, in an reply of the v3 patch series to Krzysztof Kozlowski, the compatible "fsl,imx-audio-no-codec" instead of "generic". Krzysztof thought it was too generic, but it would convey more clearly that it is for cases without codec driver. Would this other compatible string be more appropriate ?
