We'll do it later. As you say, to avoid dependencies.
I've thought a few times about making a function for this but
couldn't decide what to call it to distinguish from the existing
snd_soc_dai_set_dma_data().
My preference was to create a SoC function that does exactly the same as
cs42l42_sdw_dai_set_sdw_stream() so if that's all you need you can
point your snd_soc_dai_ops directly at it.
