This should probably be integrated with ASoC for management of the
biases if nothing else, though it'd also allow other stuff. ALSA has
support for creating input devices from jacks already.

The ALSA (well, ASoC) stuff would also allow the input device to be
merged with that for other detection methods so if you've got a headset
jack capable of detecting other things (eg, mechanical insertion or
separate mic and headphone detection).
