+description: |
+  Samsung Exynos Automotive Abox Generic core node.
+
+  This node represents the generic Abox controller which manages
+  various Abox sub-drivers and acts as a hub connecting them to
+  SoC-level audio drivers. It provides PCM playback and capture
+  configuration, as well as dummy I2S backend handling, enabling
+  integration between Abox IP blocks and the SoC audio subsystem.
+
+  Typically, this node is used to initialize and configure playback,
+  capture, and routing between the Abox and other SoC audio components.

This wasn't ever tested, so very short review. You have typos here and
there. But more important - this should not be a "generic" thing, but
binding for your sound card.

What's more important, there is no user of it, so anyway this cannot be
accepted as it makes no sense without user.

But the quality of the patch and lack of testing makes me thinking if
you could not get some help inside Samsung in posting a proper patch?


Best regards,

The base for the series is generally the latest rc1. A different dependency
should be noted in *this* patch.

If you already ran 'make dt_binding_check' and didn't see the above
error(s), then make sure 'yamllint' is installed and dt-schema is up to
date:

pip3 install dtschema --upgrade

Please check and re-submit after running the above command yourself. Note
that DT_SCHEMA_FILES can be set to your schema file to speed up checking
your schema. However, it must be unset to test all examples with your schema.
