Well, it's how it's wired on most boards. The jack is directly
connected to the SoC, without any detection mechanism, not even a
GPIO, so we can only assume it's always there if we want it to work
properly.

I'm not sure I understand here. The former DT bindings example was
adding this route, which was broken because of the missing output
widget for the headphone jack.

My patch here adds both if the DT says that the headphone jack is
actually used on that board, so it should fix both issues: no broken
route, and no missing widgets. right?
