This codec is needed to drive PCM5102A based i2s DAC. It can be found in
several low cost I2S DAC break boards (I have a Polyvection one for
example) and is generally used on SBC like the RPi, Odroid or Orange Pi.

On such devices, the driver will be selected via a proper declaration of
the device in the device tree (e.g. in a custom dts file). See for
example this issue I submitted to the Armbian project (together with a
PR that patches this very same issue I described in this thread):
