You know encode driver model into bindings, so obviously no-go.
In this case platform entries do exactly that, they define which dma signal number is routed to peripherals in LPC32xx. They describe hardware capabilities of the pl08x dma and which AHB bus the dma is connected to.

No. They shouldn't change the same way as expected dma-names shouldn't change.

Use these. Then I need to write a lpc32xx dma mux driver, device tree binding for it and adjust the LPC32xx I2S driver for it.

Please do not drop context > from replies. I have no clue what you want to discuss here. Well I didn't remove the context, you said: " Drop. (...) + "#sound-dai-cells": + const: 0 " So I'm confused whether the "#sound-dai-cells" should be in the dt binding or not. -- Piotr Wojtaszczyk Timesys
