I have seen it on older hardware, I don't know about more recent systems. For the S-Video case at least, you need to support two DT ports, even if you don't support connecting them to two different devices yet. In any case, I'm fine if those topologies are not supported yet, but it should be possible to support them in a backward-compatible way. In particular, in this case, we should make sure the DT bindings will allow such topologies, and the DT parsing API should make it possible to support them without fugure changes to drivers that use the API from this patch for "simple" topologies. > > > The specific fields are within a union, since only one of them can be > > > available at the time.
