Thanks, Mark >From 39c66b6ef6f3aaf5bac61555db70ffb2864161c6 Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Kuninori Morimoto <kuninori.morimoto.gx@xxxxxxxxxxx> Date: Tue, 3 Sep 2019 17:15:54 +0900 Subject: [PATCH] ASoC: simple-card: indicate rebind issue ALSA SoC try to rebind Sound Card if Card/CPU/Codec/Platform were unbinded and re-binded again. But, Simple Card might can't rebind again if user do for example unbind CPU or Codec driver bind CPU or Codec driver Because Simple Card is still pointing old/unbinded CPU or Codec driver's DAI name at dlc->dai_name. To avoid this issue, it needs to alloc memory and keep DAI name even though if CPU or Codec driver was unbinded. Or, always do unbind/bind at Sound Card. For now, this patch indicates this issue as FIXME.
