With v4.4 from which I forward port those changes only the PXA 'stargate2' mach is using this codec. In this version there is no reference to 'vroi'. With newest Linux - there is no reference to this codec (even to any DTS file), so we can assume that from at least v4.4 there is no reference to platform data for it. I guess that one can provide the 'vroi' information via DTS nowadays if required.
