My patch doesn't fix everything with the audio debugfs entries anyway.
I'm working against 5.4 on our downstream tree, and even with my patch
I get
[    7.459508] debugfs: Directory 'fef00700.hdmi' with parent
'vc4-hdmi' already present!
[    7.511017] debugfs: Directory 'fef05700.hdmi' with parent
'vc4-hdmi1' already present!
I seem to recall I reduced the number of complaints over 'vc4-hdmi',
but internal to sound/soc-core the node is still registered twice.

There was discussion about this a few months back.
https://lore.kernel.org/lkml/1jblpvraho.fsf@starbuckisacylon.baylibre.com/
seemed to conclude that it wasn't totally trivial to solve.
