The aess label above should be in the child aess node, not in the
target-module.

Sounds like that's all taken care of nowadays with the generic
graph binding:

Documentation/devicetree/bindings/graph.txt

See also snd-soc-audio-graph-card and various users for it:

Documentation/devicetree/bindings/sound/audio-graph-card.txt

Yeah this is how it should be :)

Well the old phandles and properties should work the same, just put them
into the child aess node. No need to stuff anything else there at the
target-module level AFAIK.

But we have no binding and no driver for the aess at this point..
If and when the aess driver work the child node can be just added :)
