This update patch will split the DT node into old style and new style:
The new style will will be easier to add muti DAI links from old single
DAI link DTs.

This patch will maintian compatibility with the old DTs.

Is everyone happy with this new style binding?

If I read the diff correctly the only change in the syntax is moving the 
bitclock-inversion and frame-inversion properties to DAI nodes also for 
the new style bindings.

I am Ok with that.

The document does not indicate that the same properties could be also 
placed to DAI link level like they used to, from where they would apply 
to both DAI nodes.

I am Ok with this too, but this breaks the backwards compatibility, 
which I guess is generally considered a problem. However, I doubt anyone 
but me has yet used this part of the new syntax and I am happy to fix my 
dts files.

Best regards,
Jyri

ps. I could not find the corresponding code changes in the previous 
patch, so I assume they are coming later.

I will post one new version of this patch with some very small fix, and
I will also add this.

Yes, I have one patch about the new style in my local machine, for some
reason I will post it later.
