The name is exposed to userspace and visible to the user (e.g.
in alsamixer), but also used by Alsa UCM2. I suggest to use
"RK3588 HDMI-IN".

Move the whole card definition to rk3588-extra.dtsi with a new label
(e.g. hdmi_receiver_sound) and add status = "disabled"; Then just do

&hdmi_receiver_sound {
    status = "okay";
};

in the Orange Pi 5+ DT, i.e. just like the soundcards for HDMI
output. This reduces a lot of duplication as the soundcard is the
same on all boards considering there is a dedicated I2S channel for
it. It's disabled by default as some boards do not route the HDMI
receiver at all.

Greetings,
