I re-considered about above, and checked current code.
If my above understanding was correct,
simple-card driver needs many patches to support it.
And, it is not easy

I want to synchronize basic agreement before starting it.
Otherwise, it is easy to reject my many weeks work,
and I don't want it.
# 1st simple-card DT support used 1 year...

My understanding is below.
It is good match for my current purpose,
and "sampling-rate-convert feature via DPCM" can be standard on simple-card.
My concern is simple card code will be not simple...

-- non DPCM ----

	sound {
		compatible = "simple-audio-card";
		...
		cpu {
			sound-dai = <&cpu-dai>;
		};
		codec {
			sound-dai = <&codec-dai>;
		};
	};

        same as current style

-- DPCM ----

	sound {
		compatible = "simple-audio-card";
		...
		cpu {
			sound-dai = <&cpu-dai>;
		};
		codec {
			sound-dai = <&codec-dai>;
			fixed-sampling-rate = <44100>;
		};
	};

	DPCM FE/BE will be

        FE cpu   : cpu-dai
           codec : dummy

        BE cpu   : dummy
           codec : codec-dai

        required route will be created automatically
        but, it needs "enable DAI name on DAPM route" method anyway
