Ah right, I misunderstood then.

So, does the following sound reasonable:

Add:

snd_soc_of_parse_card_name(struct snd_soc_card *card,
			   const char *prop);

.. and have the machine driver call that whenever it decides, rather
than having e.g. snd_soc_register_card() call it.

Add:

int snd_soc_of_parse_audio_routing(struct snd_soc_card *card,
				   const char *prop);

.. and have the machine driver call that whenever it decides, rather
than having e.g. snd_soc_register_card() call it.

Remove
Documentation/devicetree/bindings/sound/embedded-audio-complex.txt from
the patches completely, and document the properties solely in the
Tegra+WM8903 machine driver binding; we can write
embedded-audio-complex.txt if we create a truly generic ASoC driver binding.

Does that sound reasonable?

Thanks.
