The notion of read is a bit overloaded here. What is needed is that the 
information is provided to the bus, whether you read it from firmware or 
a table in the codec driver is an implementation choice - see below.

The properties are needed so that the bus can perform all the 
transport-related stuff. As explained in the patches, we are not making 
assumptions on how the codec driver is written, the implementation can 
either get the properties from firmware (DT or ACPI) or hard-code them 
in the driver.

The only property that needs to be defined is for multi-lane setups, 
since the topology is not known to a codec driver.
