auxdata is really meant to be a temporary solution to plug platform_data.

All platform devices do not necessarily go into the DT. The DT should
describe the h/w. For sound I would expect this to be all the h/w blocks
like i2s, dma, codec and then information on how they are connected. Can
you show what your sound binding looks like.
