The arizona codecs use the MFD framework and there is a separate
platform-device instantiated for the jack-detect functionality, so this
(mostly) a standalone platform-driver which has very little interaction
with the rest of the codec code.

It is not a codec driver, or code shared between the codec drivers,
so putting it under sound/soc/codecs would be a bit weird.

With that said I have no strong preference for putting it under
a new sound/soc/cirrus dir, if everyone is ok with putting it under
sound/soc/codecs then that works for me.
