The driver in question (twl4030.c) does not call snd_soc_codec_set_cache_io().
However the snd-soc core does call it in sound/soc/soc-core.c in soc_probe_codec.

I do see that there's a commit 98d3088e534a2a61f6690b5426909b0c3b57a785 that is
fixing it in a different manner.

Originally it was call unconditionally, but now it should work. Let me check this
and I'll report back.
