Well, the ADC is clearly part of the CODEC but the logic surrounding
walking through the table and coming up with jack statuses to report
based off it isn't, that's a generic thing which should probably be
sitting along with soc-jack.c (possibly in there, possibly as a separate
file).

I'd suggest putting the bodies of the function into the main CODEC
driver for now.
