[PATCH] arm64: dts: allwinner: a64: Disable SPDIF by default

[Samuel Holland]

As of v5.7-rc2, Linux now prints the following message at boot:

[ 33.848525] platform sound_spdif: deferred probe pending

This is because &sound_spdif is waiting on its DAI link component
&spdif to probe, but &spdif is disabled in the DTS. Disable the
audio card as well to match.

Hi Samuel,

This "On-board SPDIF" node is board specific and should be moved to
each board instead of be disabled here.

Maybe drop the node, and people who need it whould reintroduce it properly?

Regards,
Clement

I don't see any in-tree. The only A64 DTS that references &spdif at all is
sun50i-a64-pine64.dts, which explicitly disables it:

/* On Euler connector */
&spdif {
status = "disabled";
};

I'm leaning toward agreeing with Clement that the sound_spdif node (and also
spdif_out) should be removed altogether from the A64 DTSI.

Regards,
Samuel

This has been introduced by Marcus Cooper for the Pine64 audio extension.
https://store.pine64.org/?product=pine64-stereo-audio-dac-pot-board

So this should be moved to an overlay no?
