Sorry, what does your "Intel patches" means ?
Do you mean like this ?

If so, actually I'm very waiting this patch series.
But, it seems nothing happen on ALSA ML after that.
So, I thought it was rejected or something happen.
I think my patch and above are basically using same idea for dai_link,
I think there is no conflict around dai_link.
If above patch series was delayed or temporary aborted,
and will be restart/retry multi CPU support someday,
then, it can based on it, I thought.
If Intel still have plan about it, I'm very happy to wait.
