Checking node name is maybe nice idea,
but please consider "prefix" here.

Maybe base issue for multiple codec support
is that simple_for_each_link() is caring first codec only ?

	simple_for_each_link(...)
	{
		...
		do {
=>			/* get codec */
=>			codec = of_get_child_by_name(...);
			...
		}
	}

Remove above and having simple_node_is_codec(np, xxx) function
or something can help it ?


Thank you for your help !!

Best regards
