As far as I can tell this demux is entirely software based - why not
just expose the routing control to userspace and let it handle
switching (which I suspect may be more featureful than what's
implemented here)?

This should be integrated with the core jack detection stuff in
soc-jack.c and/or the core stuff that's wrapping - that way you'll
ensure that events are generated and status readable via all the
interfaces userspace might be looking for.  The ASoC stuff also has some
DAPM integration for turning on/off outputs which might DTRT for you if
you do need it in kernel.
