The major difference between your two boards is that CS4270 doesn't use
DAPM while WM8776 does.  Though if one of them were going to break I'd
really expect it to be the CS4270, obviously non-DAPM CODECs are a real
corner case (to the point where I think you're the only active user of
such a device) and certainly all Liam's TI reference systems have DAPM
CODECs so this is really surprising...  I wonder if PowerPC mutexes are
less forgiving here?
