Support for loading the simple-card module via DeviceTree. It requests CPU/CODEC information.

v3 -> v4
- explain detail of each properties on simple-card.txt
- fixup odd examples on simple-card.txt
- remove "simple-card,card-name". create it from cpu/codec name
- use of_get_child_by_name()
- remove odd pointer info from dev_dbg()
- remove subnode format which are no longer needed
This is based on asoc/topic/simple branch

Is there a class binding for audio devices this derives from?

Do these all apply to both sub-nodes?

+- bitclock-inversion : bool property. add this if subnode has clock inversion +- frame-inversion : bool property. add this if subnode has frame inversion +- clocks / system-clock-frequency : specify subnode's clock if needed.
it can be specified via "clocks" if system has clock node,
or "system-clock-frequency" if system doesn't have it.
What does "if system doesn't have it" mean? If it doesn't have a clock, how does said non-existent clock have a frequency?
It would be possible to use a fixed-clock in place of system-clock-frequency, which would make the binding more consistent and the driver simpler, at the cost of making the dt marginally more complex.
Just plain "clock-frequency" is fairly standard, so please use that instead. Unless there is need for a fixed-clock to be routed to several nodes, then I think using the more simple clock-frequency here is fine.
Can both sub-nodes really have different clocks? Seems like that would exceed the definition of simple.
