I wonder if such property could be viewed as a Linux implementation
detail ?

Similar discussion around DPCM:

* https://lore.kernel.org/linux-devicetree/20191014115635.GB4826@sirena.co.uk/#t
* https://alsa-devel.alsa-project.narkive.com/NCs4MsqL/simle-card-dt-style-for-dpcm#post4

Should the card figure out the codec-to-codec links on its own or is it
something generic enough to put in DT ?

In the Amlogic card driver, I'm using the compatible string of the
device to figure out if CPU is a CODEC.
It is ad-hoc and, to be honest, I'm not entirely happy with this
solution but I could not figure out a better one yet.
