And I have a question: how to assure the audio/gfx client find its
right peer?
On a x86 platform, there can be an integrated GPU and an discrete GPU.
So there can be two audio controllers and two GPUs.
We need to assure audio controller find the proper GPU, and vice
versa. Maybe we need the peer audio/gfx to register with a same identifier (something like vendor ID) for peering.
Yes, it's an open issue. So far, the binding with vga_switcheroo is done by a rough guess with PCI ID.
Yeah, I guess we need platform/bus specific hints.

How do the audio driver know which displays when a single displayport output can drive multiple displays ?
