As I see it the problem is that we have a deviceless dai and there is not really a
way to register a dai without a device. But I have no idea right now how to change
the core to make it "behave helpfully".

And in a sense snd_soc_register_dais seems to be the right thing to use for now,
because the sound card as a whole has multiple dais they just not all registered at
the same time.

Seriously? I don't see how adding a dummy device wouldn't be "bodging around the
core". Especially if using snd_soc_register_dais is.

Well, if were using snd_soc_register_machine to give the card a different name the
bluetooth-dai would still be named after the card, wouldn't it? So there is no
improvement here as to giving the dai a meaningful name.
