Ah, sorry, I missed to check that driver and checked only DRM drivers. :)
By the way, it seems 'sound-dai-cells' property never affect Exynos4210/4212/5420/5433. It seems that even through ALSA TM2 audio driver(tm2_wm5110.c) exists the driver never check the property.
However, this patch adds below description.
"Optional properties for Exynos 4210, 4212, 5420 and 5433"

Is there a possibility for other boards based on Exynos4210/4212/5420/5433 SoC to use this property later?

Thanks,
