Apparently it was broken from the start, as git-bisect blames this commit:

f0fba2ad1b6b53d5360125c41953b7afcd6deff0 is the first bad commit

    ASoC: multi-component - ASoC Multi-Component Support

I suspect the problem is that the defconfig for the MPC5200 doesn't actually
enable audio, so when that platform was tested, none of the ASoC code was
actually compiled.
