Then maybe it's not be a good idea to make this compatible generic
for this contribution.
The original intention is to bring support for the S/PDIF,
so maybe the contribution should focus on this use case?
In that case, would changing the compatible for "fsl,imx-audio-spdif-card"
be acceptable?
"fsl,imx-audio-spdif" is already used for the `imx-spdif.c`
which does not use the ASRC.
