Merge tag 'asoc-v5.7' of https://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/broonie/sound into for-linus
ASoC: Updates for v5.7 This is a very big update for the core since Morimoto-san has been rather busy continuing his refactorings to clean up a lot of the cruft that we have accumilated over the years. We've also gained several new drivers, including initial (but still not complete) parts of the Intel SoundWire support. - Lots of refactorings to modernize the code from Morimoto-san. - Conversion of SND_SOC_ALL_CODECS to use imply from Geert Uytterhoeven. - Continued refactoring and fixing of the Intel support. - Soundwire and more advanced clocking support for Realtek RT5682. - Support for amlogic GX, Meson 8, Meson 8B and T9015 DAC, Broadcom DSL/PON, Ingenic JZ4760 and JZ4770, Realtek RL6231, and TI TAS2563 and TLV320ADCX140.

dai names ending with "Playback" and "Capture" respectively as dapm core
will link and power those dais based on the name.
-Note that in current device tree there is no way to mark a dai_link
-as codec to codec. However, it may change in future.
+A dai_link in a "simple-audio-card" will automatically be detected as
+codec to codec when all DAIs on the link belong to codec components.
+The dai_link will be initialized with the subset of stream parameters
+(channels, format, sample rate) supported by all DAIs on the link. Since
+there is no way to provide these parameters in the device tree, this is
+mostly useful for communication with simple fixed-function codecs, such
+as a Bluetooth controller or cellular modem.
