In my opinion this binding exposes way to much of the ASoC internal data
structures. E.g. CODECs are referenced by phandle, but the DAI of the CODEC
is reference by a string. This string is completely ASoC internal. The
binding also assumes that a CPU controller may have one DAI at most. In my
opinion this binding ought to use the upcoming of_xlate stuff for ASoC
components.
