The issue is basically if you have a path with a DPCM DAI at the
front, but then a regular CODEC to CODEC DAI link later in the
path. Say for example a CODEC attached to a CPU that uses DPCM
but then the path goes through a CODEC to CODEC link to a speaker
AMP after the CODEC.

Piotr is on holiday this week but should be back start of next
week, so should be able to respin the patch then. For what its
worth though I have seen this warning on other systems from the
one he is working on as well.
