All these work because they have separate source and sink dpn_prop
arrays. Separate arrays, separate number of ports, separate masks - all
this is good. Now going to my code...

The ports are indeed hard-coded/fixed.

Because I could, just easier to code. :) Are you saying the code is not
correct? If I understand the concept of source/sink dpn port mask, it
should be correct. I have some array with source and sink ports. I pass
it to Soundwire with a mask saying which ports are source and which are
sink.

I could do: s/wsa884x_sink_dpn_prop/wsa884x_dpn_prop/ and expect the
code to be correct.
