Two kinds of ports may be declared in a DT graph of ports: video and audio. This patch accepts the port value from a video port as an alternative to the video-ports property. It also accepts audio ports in the case the transmitter is not used as a slave encoder. The new file include/sound/tda998x.h prepares to the definition of a tda998x CODEC.

It's what ePAPR requires.
The problem is when you have multiple nodes called the same thing, you need to add the @number suffix to the name, and if you do that, ePAPR says you must also have a reg property, where the reg property matches the number given after the @.
See https://www.power.org/wp-content/uploads/2012/06/Power_ePAPR_APPROVED_v1.1.p... page 15, 2.2.1 "Node names".
Here I do not even understand what what the values 3 ad 4 stand for.
It's the audio input pin number (which is a sort-of bus address.)
Anyway having some clearly defined property that explicitly defines the audio pins would make more sense to me. Even if that is not possible due lack of proper documentation it would be better not add to the confusion by unusual usage of reg property.
As ePAPR requires the reg= property with the @unit-address part, this is the most sane approach.
