Mind to send a proper patch fixing the above? Make sure you run
./scripts/checkpatch.pl and ./scripts/get_maintainer.pl on the
patch. It should give you an idea of proper code style and what
people/lists to send it to. I am sure, google will help you with
how to prepare proper kernel patches, too.

This is, as always, a missing dependency of simple-card node.

Either you are missing drivers for Dove audio (kirkwood-i2s) or
one of the drivers involved in your simple-card fails.

Look for errors in your dmesg output - also please name the
kernel version you are working with. There have been some changes
in clk handling that break a bunch of drivers in 4.0-rc1.
