Oh, I just searched in the simple-card.c but missed this file.

Why codec_dai? Why not dai_props->cpu_dai->sysclk since we are talking
about SSI?

This tfa9879 should be the CODEC right?

You mean I2C scl or I2S sclk?

But anyway, I feel very confused here as you have 66MHz clock rate
(regardless of it purpose) for a codec dai but it's been passed to
a cpu dai (SSI).

I haven't used simple-card for a while so I forgot how to define
its DT bindings specifically. But you should assign ssi2 as the
CPU dai and assign tfa9879 as a CODEC dai.
