A bit of a mechanical review since my audio knowledge is not strong.

nit: you don't need the pipe at the end of the "description" line.
That means that newlines are important and you don't need it.

I haven't yet seen much yaml using definitions like this.  It feels
like overkill for some of these properties, especially ones that are
only ever used once in the "properties:" section and are/or are really
simple.

So if the property isn't there then it's _not_ unidirectional and if
it is there then this specifies the direction, right?  I almost wonder
if this should just be two boolean properties, like:

playback-only;
capture-only;

...but I guess I'd leave it to Rob and/or Mark to say what they liked
better.  In any case if you keep it how you have it then you should
use yaml to force it to be either 0 or 1 if present.

Just:

properties:
  compatible:
    const: qcom,sc7180-sndcard

You don't need the "|-" after the "description:".  That says newlines
are important but strip the newline from the end.

>From looking at "simple-card.yaml", I'm gonna guess that instead of
encoding the link number in the name of the node that you should
actually use a unit address and a reg in the subnodes.

...also, again your description doesn't need the "|" at the end.
Maybe <https://yaml-multiline.info/> will be useful to you?

Can you use the full node name "sound" here?

I think pinctrl is usually not in the dt examples.

...also, shouldn't the mi2s pinctrl be in the i2s nodes, not in the
overall sound node?
