4 streams on 4 different APs (sources) should work, but 4 streams from
a same source should be detailed.

In an other way, the unit address (== first reg) does not need to be a
sequence number. It is the I/O base in most DTs.
So, it could be the port value:

port@230145 {
port-type = "rgb";
reg = <0x230145>;
hdmi_0: endpoint {
remote-endpoint = <&lcd0_0>;
};
};
port@3 { /* AP1 = I2S */
port-type = "i2s";
reg = <0x03>;
tda998x_i2s: endpoint {
remote-endpoint = <&audio1_i2s>;
};
};
port@4 { /* AP2 = S/PDIF */
port-type = "spdif";
reg = <0x04>;
tda998x_spdif: endpoint {
remote-endpoint = <&audio1_spdif1>;
};
};
