That's not 100% clear - some of the drivers say they're specific to
particular designs (either in the help text or by having board-specific
GPIO setup).  It's certainly the intention of the API that the board
hookups be fixed at run time rather than at compile time, and that
things like using multiple CPU DAIs should be possible.

The other option here is to make the CODEC drivers build without their
control buses, which keeps the people doing random configurations happy.
