[RFC PATCH 1/2] dt-bindings: media: snps,dw-hdmi-rx: add #sound-dai-cells

From: Igor Paunovic

Date: Wed Jul 15 2026 - 01:27:36 EST


The HDMI RX controller can expose the audio embedded in the incoming
HDMI stream as an ALSA capture device. Document the #sound-dai-cells
property so that a sound card can reference the HDMI RX audio DAI.
