Please propose patches, don't send enormous design documents. They're
big, take a long time to read and don't really get us anywhere unless
they're extremely clear.

Like I keep saying if you're thinking about this in terms of DPCM you're
solving the wrong problem - we already support supplying parameters for
device<->device links, we already have systems that need to configure
things for device<->device links so we can already see that if we're
doing something that only works for things that are on SoC and can use
DPCM then we're not solving the problem.
DPCM works pretty well for small, simple DSPs that are mostly in line
in the middle of a standard DAI but it does have limitations which
you're now running into. Your systems don't fit well with what DPCM
supports naturally.

This is clearly confused, if we can't figure out what the two devices we
are connecting are based on just looking at the devices then that's
really not a good sign that our interfaces are sensible and easy to work
with.
