I haven't had a look at this for quite some time. I suppose the
cpcap voice DAI and the modem will also have two endpoints? So
once the BT support is added it will looks like this [simplified]?

&mcbsp3 {
    ports {
        port@0 {
            cpu_dai3_cpcap: endpoint@0 {};
            cpu_dai3_modem: endpoint@1 {};
            cpu_dai3_bt: endpoint@2 {};
        };
    };
};

&cpcap {
    ports {
        voice: port@1 {
            cpcap_voice_cpu: endpoint@0 {};
            cpcap_voice_modem: endpoint@1 {};
            cpcap_voice_bt: endpoint@2 {};
        };
    };
};

&modem {
    ports {
        port@0 {
            modem_voice_cpu: endpoint@0 {};
            modem_voice_cpcap: endpoint@1 {};
            modem_voice_bt: endpoint@2 {};
        };
    };
};

&bluetooth {
    ports {
        port@0 {
            bt_dai_cpu: endpoint@0 {};
            bt_dai_modem: endpoint@1 {};
            bt_dai_cpcap: endpoint@2 {};
        };
    };
};

rx51 and omap-twl4030 override the hardcoded paths with DT
information when DT is available (=3D always), so hardcoded paths
do not matter at all and could simply be removed (the patch
should also make DT mandatory).

For omap3pandora, n810 and osk5912 the hardcoded information seems
to be used and there does not seem to be any soundcard DT node for
them. I suppose it's a bit of work for those devices. n810
looks simple enough to just use simple-card.
