As suggested by Pierre-Louis Bossart these changes are not necessary and 
the TODO is to be removed. Earlier my intention was to create a new flag 
that lets us know whether multi_link is to be read from 
sdw_bus_master_add just as instructed in TODO.

I shall send another patch, that removes the TODO, as suggested by 
Pierre-Louis Bossart.
