Yes, so long as you boil it down to a single link it works fine but the
bit on top of the binding where you tie the two CPU DAIs to what is
actually exposed is all in code.  The reason this stuff isn't filled in
is that connecting the thing that applications see to the physical links
isn't at all obvious and needs at least some driver sitting in the
middle to make the links - I'd imagine there's a DSP sitting there which
probably has quite a bit of flexability about how the various hardware
components available are actually related.  This makes figuring out what
to do with the relationship between the multiple CPU DAIs hard.
