Hi Marcus,

FWIW, the TI McASP driver has support for TDM & (i think?) multiple
transfer lines which are called serializers.
Maybe this can help with inspiration?
see https://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/torvalds/linux.git/tree/sound/soc/ti/davinci-mcasp.c
sample DTS:

&mcasp0 {
    #sound-dai-cells = <0>;
    status = "okay";
    pinctrl-names = "default";
    pinctrl-0 = <&mcasp0_pins>;

    op-mode = <0>;
    tdm-slots = <8>;
    serial-dir = <
        2 0 1 0
        0 0 0 0
        0 0 0 0
        0 0 0 0
    >;
    tx-num-evt = <1>;
    rx-num-evt = <1>;
};


Cheers!
