does it mean with DT probing it worked before and with platform change it's broken?
Or anything else cause this regression in 4.19?

Sorry, but there is no need for a quick shot against a downstream 4.14. I assumed you make your changes against upstream linux-next + Phil's and my patches.

You can use https://github.com/anholt/linux/commits/bcm2835-audio until 4.20-rc1 is out.
Using 4.14 or 4.19 doesn't make any sense to me.
