[PATCH v2 2/3] ARM: dts: allwinner: orangepi-zero2: Add default audio routing

[J. Neuschäfer via B4 Relay]

From: "J. Neuschäfer" <j.ne@posteo.net>

The Orange Pi Zero Plus 2 has the same pinout[1] as the Orange Pi
Zero[2] (with the possible exception of line-out left/right being
swapped), and the Orange Pi Zero Interface Board is sold[3] as
compatible with both of them. We can thus use the same audio routing.

[PATCH v2 3/3] ARM: dts: allwinner: Add Orange Pi Zero Interface Board overlay

[J. Neuschäfer via B4 Relay]

From: "J. Neuschäfer" <j.ne@posteo.net>

The Orange Pi Zero interface board is a (mostly) passive adapter from the
13-pin header of the Orange Pi Zero and Orange Pi Zero Plus2 to standard
connectors (2x USB A, 1x Audio/Video output, 1x built-in microphone, 1x
infrared input). Headphones, microphone, infrared (CIR) input, and USB
have been tested with the Orange Pi Zero.

CVBS output is currently not supported.

The subject is misleading. The Orange Pi Zero2 is a different board with
the H616 SoC.
