Hi Lars

Now, my system is working well with simple-card by this

	sound {
		compatible = "simple-audio-card";
		...

		cpu {
			sound-dai = <&rcar_sound 0>;
		};
		codec {
			sound-dai = <&ak4643>;
		};
	};

The reason why I'm tring to support DPCM on simple-card is "sampling rate convert".
My rcar_sound can convert sampling rate, and I tried to add this feature as
rcar_sound property.
But, Mark rejected and requests me to use DPCM for it,
since it can be common featrue.
Current existing simple-card can't use it, and I'm tring.
But, am I misunderstanding ?

Best regards
