I am actually not sure at all why we need the platform_name to be set in
Intel machine drivers.

I ran a 5mn experiment with SOF and we completely ignore what is set by
machine drivers, it's overridden by the component name:

            dev_info(card->dev, "info: override FE DAI link %s\n",
                 card->dai_link[i].name);

            /* override platform component */
            if (snd_soc_init_platform(card, dai_link) < 0) {
                dev_err(card->dev, "init platform error");
                continue;
            }
            pr_err("plb: platform_name was %s, now %s\n",
                   dai_link->platform->name,
                   component->name);

            dai_link->platform->name = component->name;

existing machine driver (info is incorrect btw, should be BE DAI link)

I checked for a bit longer with the Skylake driver, I also couldn't see
a difference with or without the platform_name set.

Audio playback works in both cases.

The funny thing is that the list of components is right in
/sys/kernel/debug/asoc.

My guess is that the required PCI component is already added when the
platform_name is used in soc_bind_dai_link() and snd_soc_rtdcom_add()
does nothing for the back-end, so the dailink platform_name has actually
zero influence on the outcome.

Another way to look at it is that we already provide the
dai_link->cpu_dai_name which is enough for soc_bind_dai_link() to find
the relevant component and as a result the dailink->platform_name seems
redundant/unnecessary. I am using the conditional here since this part
of the code (Intel driver included) seems to work by accident rather
than by design, and we'd need a set of additional tests before removing
these hard-coded initializations.

Does this help?
