Oh, here's some documentation - please include the documentation
before the code, without the documentation the reader is going to have
no idea what the code is supposed to be implementing.

This doesn't mention how they're matched up.

So, this is not exactly pretty as a binding.  I would expect to see the
links explicitly represented in the DT so you see the two DAIs in each
link grouped into a container, the above isn't very easy to read and as
Jyri says this lack of clarity also causes practical problems in that
there's nowhere to place link specific parameters.

I think what I'd expect to see here is that the simple card can either
be a container with a link in it directly or a container of links.
