I posted v2 patchset OF graph simple-card which doesn't have "type" property.
Anyway, if you use OF graph simple-card, your "CPU" side driver need to
call asoc_simple_card_try_to_probe_graph_card() to probing it.

And this is not 100% mandatory, but your CPU and/or Codec driver
want to adjust OF graph style for parsing. The position is like this

simple-card :: dai-link <-> OF graph simple-card :: port/endpoint
