ACK. In v2 I only kept dai definition and removed others.

Use playback-only and capture-only in v2 instead.

Fixed in v2.

Thanks for the explanation. Fixed in v2.
I think this naming is better, although there is no usage in the
machine driver for the reg.

Thanks for the explanation and the pointer!

Fixed in v2.

Yes. Thanks for pointing this out. Fixed in dts file in chromium.
