I understand that this patch has been merged. However, seeing this label
I wonder how this works when the analog codec and HDMI audio out are added,
and how userspace is supposed to select an output.

On the side, it seems that extra codecs, such as the rock64 add-on board,
are easier dealt with by adding a separate simple-audio-card node to couple
the codec and i2s nodes.
