To me removing virtual node implies that AUDMIX machine driver (imx-
audmix.c + virtual node) shall be removed and machine driver code
merged into device driver (fsl_audmix.c + device node) - please let me
know if my understanding is wrong.

The implication is that this makes AUDMIX device driver bounded to a
particular DAI type of interface - SAI. The original intention is to
keep AUDMIX device driver DAI-agnostic.

Indeed, currently the connection between AUDMIX and SAI IP blocks in
i.MX8QM and i.MX8QXP is fixed inside the SoC, but on other platforms we
may expect AUDMIX to be connected inside the SoC to other IP blocks -
to ESAI interface for instance.

At this moment it's a bit difficult for me to evaluate how critical is
to keep the device driver DAI-agnostic, so if you think it's better to
go now with a SAI bounded AUDMIX device driver - please confirm, I'll
merge machine driver code into device driver.

Thank you,
Viorel
