Ah, you should move the jack registration to the device initialisation -
it needs to happen before the card is registered.  Putting it in
sdp4030_twl4030_init() ought to do the job.

That shouldn't be required.

BTW, when talking about code modifications you've done it's normally
helpful if you post the change you've made to reduce the chances of
miscommunication.
