Instead, wouldn't it be better to extend it by defining some platform data? Maybe something like:
Either you want a dummy or you want one with specific requirements. For the former case use the dummy codec, for the later case add a proper driver. Putting these kinds of things in your board file is in my opinion a bad habit.
Well, I've seen a couple cases where a dummy codec /is/ the proper driver and all that's needed is to restrict the formats that the DAI supports (sample rate, etc).
Yes, we can always write a board-specific dummy codec with the restricted formats -- but since there's already one in ASoC, why not make it extensible?
