Ok, if it's not called no code in sound/soc/codecs/wm9713.c will be used, right ? In that case wm9713_set_dai_clkdiv() will never be used, nor will the wm9713_audio_map or wm9713_dapm_widgets be created, which will break all userspace programs relying on these mixers and DAPM routes.

I suppose you mean sound/arm/aaci.c, which is more a platform_data like driver (if I understood the integrator code correctly). I suppose we can achieve comparable result with sound/arm/pxa2xx-ac97.c, but as to know if the functionality will be comparable to sound/soc/pxa/pxa2xx-ac97.c, it's hard to say. If I count the DMA requestors, I see 5 in the sound/soc version, and 2 in sound/arm. That makes me believe the sound/arm version is inferior.
