The H/W block is controlled by the DSP firmware. So, we don't want to use the Linux kernel driver (thus the H/W block device tree node). The only thing that we cannot control from the DSP firmware are the clocks hence we handle them in the DSP node. We moved the DAI clocks under the DSP node as I think you suggested here: https://www.lkml.org/lkml/2020/3/12/969
