Hi Mattijs,
Thanks for the patch.

FYI, similar variant of this is already posted by Tomi recently [1].

On that patch, quoting Sakari [2]:

"I've been recently working on
<URL:https://lore.kernel.org/linux-media/20260518164318.3367888-1-sakari.ailus@linux.intel.com/>.
In other words, drivers that have a single stream don't need this. We could
probably extend that further by making use of the routing information but I
think that should be left for later."

I don't really know the status of that series. I will let Sakari to comment.

Thanks and Regards,
Yemike Abhilash Chandra
