[PATCHv3,00/10] ASoC: fsl-asoc-card: compatibility integration of a generic codec use case for use with S/PDIF controller

Hello,

This is the v3 of the series of patch aiming to make the machine driver
"fsl-asoc-card" compatible with use cases where there is no real codec
driver.
It proposes to use the "spdif_receiver" and "spdif_transmitter"
drivers instead of the dummy codec.
This is a first step in using the S/PDIF controller with the ASRC.

The five first patches add compatibility with the pair of codecs
"spdif_receiver" and "spdif_transmitter" with a new compatible,
"fsl,imx-audio-generic".
Codec parameters are set with default values.
Consequently, the driver is modified to work with multi-codec use cases.
It can get 2 codecs phandles from the device tree, and the
"fsl_asoc_card_priv" struct now has 2 "codec_priv" to store properties
of both codecs. It is fixed to 2 codecs as only "fsl,imx-audio-generic"
uses multiple codecs at the moment.
However, the driver now uses for_each_codecs macros when possible to
ease future implementations of multi-codec configurations.

The remaining patches add configuration options for the device tree.
They configure the CPU DAI when using "fsl,imx-audio-generic".
These options are usually hard-coded in "fsl-asoc-card.c" for each
audio codec.
Because the generic codec could be used with other CPU DAIs than
the S/PDIF controller, setting these parameters could be required.

This series of patch was successfully built for arm64 and x86 on top of
the latest for-next branch of the ASoC git tree on the 14th of December.
These modifications have also been tested on an i.MX8MN evaluation
board, with a linux kernel RT v6.1.26-rt8.

Best regards,
Elinor Montmasson


Changelog:
v2 -> v3:
* when the bitmaster or framemaster are retrieved from the device tree,
  the driver will now compare them with the two codecs possibly given in
  the device tree, and not just the first codec.
* improve driver modifications to use multiple codecs for better
  integration of future multi-codec use cases:
    * use for_each_codec macros when possible.
    * "fsl_asoc_card_priv" struct now has 2 "codec_priv" as the driver
      can currently retrieve 2 codec phandles from the device tree.
* fix subject of patch 10/10 to follow the style of the subsystem and
  previous commits of the file.
* v2 patch series at:
https://lore.kernel.org/alsa-devel/[e-mail]/

v1 -> v2:
* replace use of the dummy codec by the pair of codecs
  "spdif_receiver" / " spdif_transmitter".
* adapt how dai links codecs are used to take into account the
  possibility for multiple codecs per link.
* change compatible name.
* adapt driver to be able to register two codecs given in the device
  tree.
* v1 patch series at:
