Srinivas,

I was able to get audio working on the Storm board.  There were several
issues.  First, the I2S control port was saved in the DAI driver id field
(which was 4), but the DAI id field was used by the macro (which was 0).
The patch below fixed it:

Ah, I did not expect that to happen, dai->id and dai->driver->id should be
same. Surprisingly this is not true for IPQ806x platform only because dais
count == 1. Which results in dai->id not getting assigned to dai->driver->id
due to below code snippet in  sound/soc/soc-core.c

/*

if (count == 1 && legacy_dai_naming) {
     dai->name = fmt_single_name(dev, &dai->id);
} else {
     dai->name = fmt_multiple_name(dev, &dai_drv[i]);
     if (dai_drv[i].id)
         dai->id = dai_drv[i].id;
     else
         dai->id = i;
}

Its not clear from code, why should we enter to legacy naming if the dais
count == 1 even-though the dai_drv has has valid name and id information.

Mark/Lars,

I can workaround this by using dai->driver->id in the driver, But do you
think that dai name and id should be assigned from dai drv if present?

I think it should be OK to extend that if condition to

if (count == 1 && dai_drv[0].id == 0 && legacy_dai_naming) ...

It doesn't look like any of the systems for which we currently take the legacy path do set id to non 0. And the less new systems following legacy naming scheme the better.
