it's the ASoC dailink creation that relies on strings, we have similar
cases for I2C.

There's no requirement that the name follows any specific convention,
just that when you want to rely on a specific device for an ASoC card
you need to use the string that matches its device name.

I am not sure how we would modify the Intel machine driver though
because the bus ID is IDA-based, so there's no way to predict what it
might be.
