Interesting... Thanks for the details.

Just to note that the DAI registration was always before the platform
registration (ever since the DAI driver started to register the
platform) and I think most TI (and probably other vendor's) driver does
things this way. McASP does a bit of lifting by requesting a DMA channel
to figure out the type of DMA...
