Thank you! In that patch I did a typo:

here. This must be "i2c-10EC5648:00", but errors remain the same...
The error
> > [ +0.020845] (NULL device *): ipc: error DSP boot timeout
made me think that I chose the wrong platform/machine because:
- it is stange that device is NULL
- it is strange that dsp doesn't work after loading the firmware.
So instead of adapting the boards/byt-rt5640.c I tried to adapt
boards/bytcr_rt5640.c that uses
.cpu_dai_name = "ssp2-port",
.platform_name = "sst-mfld-platform",
I got a "dummy sound card" but no hardware sound card..
I remember that the errors

remain. Now I don't have access to the laptop, so I cannot post the new
errors that showed up, but if you want me to make some experiments, I'll
do :)
Thanks,
Michele
PS: for the dumb things that I write, forgive me :p
