s3c64xx_device_ac97 device is exported from dev-audio.c
which is compiled only if CONFIG_SND_S3C24XX_SOC is defined.
So, If we unconditionally add the platform device, it will give error in case
the user didn't select Samsung ASoC option.
So, I guess i should make it conditional on CONFIG_SND_S3C24XX_SOC
rather than CONFIG_SND_SOC_SMDK_WM9713
