Your kernel version is rather old and was before the big Multi-Component patch,
which change the ASoC API quite a bit.
There is an old patch[1] adding ADAV801 support which still uses the pre
Multi-Component API you could use. Other options are to update your kernel to a
more recent version or backport the Multi-Component patch.
