BTW, the dai ids are already added by Prasad
https://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/next/linux-next.git/tree/include/dt-bindings/sound/qcom,q6dsp-lpass-ports.h?h=next-20260827#n240


You should use them.

to your question about increase in size, yes, this is know issue, i have
some changes to send which will remove the need of this static array
which should fix the concerns.

But for now all the hardware dai ids for qualcomm SoCs should be in a
single place irrespective of dsp or non dsp solution.
