This makes sense as a replacement for the existing aux_devs but this
doesn't feel terribly strongly related to the rest of the series and
we're not actually doing the transition yet.  What's the relationship
with dynamic links and what's the plan for transition?  There's CODECs
that could be transitioned relatively straightforwardly since they have
no DAIs and can only be used as aux_devs, it's them I'm mainly thinking
of here - the rest will need to wait I fear.
