Sorry if I was not clear before.

My goal was to get rid of 'codec' argument from DPCM function 
simple_dai_link_of_dpcm(). Patches 10/23, 11/23 are preparations for 
12/23 to have multiple Codec support.

simple_parse_mclk_fs() is used by both simple_dai_link_of_dpcm() and 
simple_dai_link_of(). To make the same API work for both the cases, I 
had to use (A) in DPCM function. Now (B) does not get used for 
simple_dai_link_of_dpcm(), but will get used by simple_dai_link_of().

If it is simpler I will just avoid 'cpu != codec' check and keep the 
function simple_parse_mclk_fs() as it is.
