4 streams on 4 different APs (sources) should work, but 4 streams from
a same source should be detailed.

In an other way, the unit address (== first reg) does not need to be a
sequence number. It is the I/O base in most DTs.
So, it could be the port value: 

	port at 230145 {
		port-type = "rgb";
		reg = <0x230145>;
		hdmi_0: endpoint {
			remote-endpoint = <&lcd0_0>;
		};
	};
	port at 3 {			/* AP1 = I2S */
		port-type = "i2s";
		reg = <0x03>;
		tda998x_i2s: endpoint {
			remote-endpoint = <&audio1_i2s>;
		};
	};
	port at 4 {			 /* AP2 = S/PDIF */
		port-type = "spdif";
		reg = <0x04>;
		tda998x_spdif: endpoint {
			remote-endpoint = <&audio1_spdif1>;
		};
	};
