We were getting cards probing without the platforms being registered (which in turn meant we were just skipping their init) and had patches proposed to implement the deferral in the cards. The deferral stuff is supposed to making sure that everything is registered when we instantiate. > same here, I don't get why the deferred probe stuff only deals with one of > the two options. I think it's just an oversight - I think the change you were proposing to check the cpu_dai_name is a good idea anyway as it makes things more consistent and work more obviously by intention. And more generally if we can simplify the code by removing legacy options that'd be good but that's a bigger bit of work...
