Those object truly don't exist in HW and only exist due to internal details of Linux's ASoC subsystem. Instead, you should register any SPDIF rx/tx dummy CODEC internally to the machine driver. Perhaps you'll still need properties to indicate which of the RX and TX paths of the HW block are actually connected to anything on the board. Perhaps a Boolean property "spdif-tx" to indicate TX support, otherwise RX support is assumed? Or, to map the properties more directly to HW, perhaps name the property "spdif-tx-jack-exists", or even "spdif-tx-jack" and make it a phandle to a node that represents the actual S/PDIF connector? -- To unsubscribe from this list: send the line "unsubscribe devicetree" in the body of a message to majordomo@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx More majordomo info at http://vger.kernel.org/majordomo-info.html
