I'm struggling to understand how to use audio-graph-card where there are
multiple alternative codecs. The host I2S endpoint has to point back to
the codec endpoint, like this:

	cpu_i2s_ep_cs47l15: endpoint {
		remote-endpoint = <&cs47l15_aif1>;
	};

But obviously that depends on which codec node was enabled. Listing
multiple endpoints makes the whole port node disabled if any remote
endpoint is in a disabled node. I've tried adding status="disabled"
to endpoints or multiple port definitions with status="disabled" but
I haven't figured out a solution.
