Ok here it is whats going on:
We have a simple-audio-card. We use
freescale/fsl-ls1028a-kontron-sl28-var3-ads2.dts. The codec name is
parsed correctly and set to either f140000.audio-controller or
f150000.audio-controller. Thus have different names. _But_ later
asoc_simple_canonicalize_cpu() will reset the dai_name pointer to
NULL in simple_parse_node() if "single" is 1 and then we end up
having two links with the same name.

Which begs the two questions:
 (1) What is "single" actually and when should it be 1?
 (2) If single is 1, then the sysfs file will be named 
"(null)-codec-name".
     Do we want that?

I guess there is a reason for it to be set to NULL, see [1].
