I got 2 copies of this patch, but none of the rest of the series appears
to be threaded with it.

Reviewing sound stuff is beyond my pay grade, so forgive me if I am off
the rails here, but this (and the "x"s in the description) look a bit
odd. Recently, we've noticed quite a few loongson dt-bindings attempting
to use a single compatible for many different chips.
Usually you have individual compatibles for the various SoCs with this
core, which can fall back to a generic one, rather than just adding a
generic compatible for all devices.
As far as I know, there's several SoCs fitting 2kxxx, and the format
being used elsewhere is "loongson,ls2k1000" etc.

Cheers,
Conor.
