I think I still don't get it.

So let's rephrase it another way : how will the function wm9713_probe() be
called, ie. what is the possible function backtrace leading to that call ?

I don't get that either. For me sound/soc/pci/ac97/ac97_codec.c is PCI specific,
not generic, so what is "generic AC'97 stuff" ? I will never be able to use it
as on my platforms CONFIG_PCI=n.

Do you have a devicetree example somewhere, with (ac97 host, audio codec) pair I
can have a look at to understand ?

Cheers.
