I have prototyped this with my mobile-mode wcd9378 driver for the
FP6. For the paths my driver implements (TX/capture), the following
works:

- the TX slave node owns reset-gpios, the supplies and the mic-bias
  voltages; the RX slave is referenced from the TX node by phandle;
- like the wsa883x/wsa8840 speaker amps (powerdown GPIO and supplies
  on the slave node), the TX slave driver does the supply/reset
  bring-up itself from its probe, and both slaves then enumerate
  normally;
- the ASoC component and DAIs register on the TX slave device; the
  aggregation is TX-over-RX instead of a third device over both.

Verified on the FP6 across two boots: both slaves enumerate, the card
registers, and handset-mic capture passes the same kind of 1 kHz
speaker-to-mic round-trip check used to validate [1]. However RX playback and
MBHC are not implemented in my driver in either shape, so I cannot
speak to those paths.

Since, as agreed with Srinivas, [1] already carries this binding:
whatever shape is decided here, I would like to respin [1] to match
rather than have the two threads resolve differently.

commit on top of the posted v2 driver).
