This looks very good, there are some issues but nothing too major. I
may be repeating some things others have said but hopefully not too
much.

Keep the devices sorted in both Makefile and Kconfig.

This does nothing except validate some parameters. Is there actually an
externally visible DAI for this CODEC? If it's just integrated into the
SoC and there's nothing to configure then just omit the DAI
configuration since it's not even useful to document the signal format.

You listed an 18 bit format in hw_params - one or other of this and
hw_params is presumably out of date.

I'd expect to see this as part of the _OFF in the main switch
statement.

This looks suspiciously like you should be using DAPM for the headphone
at least, though if there's only headphone out that's possibly not worth
it. Also, are you sure that you want both low and high current VREF
configuring here? I'm not clear what these settings do but the way
they're being managed both here and in _PREPARE seems odd.

Seems a bit odd to use the part number in some places and not others.
