SND_SOC_DAIFMT_xxx comment indicates "codec clk/FRM" indeed.
but does this "codec" means "codec chip" ??
I'm not sure.

but anyway, if my understanding is correct,

	simple-audio-card,cpu {
		...
		bitclock-master;
		frame-master;
	};

	simple-audio-card,codec {
		...
		bitclock-master;
		frame-master;
	};

This will be
cpu   : SND_SOC_DAIFMT_CBS_CFS
codec : SND_SOC_DAIFMT_CBM_CFM

but, it is un-understandable/confusable for me,
and it breaks our sound card.

	${LINUX}/arch/arm/boot/dts/sh73a0-kzm9g-reference.dts
        ${LINUX}/arch/arm/boot/dts/r8a7740-armadillo800eva-reference.dts
        
I guess you want like this ?

	codec-bitclock-master;
	codec-frame-master;

	simple-audio-card,cpu {
		...
	};

	simple-audio-card,codec {
		...
	};

# And I guess [1/2] and [2/2] should be 1 patch.
# otherwise, it breaks git-bisect :P
