Nothing prevents you to enable the SSI driver on any i.MX6 module.
The only change I made is to select the SAI driver instead of the SSI
driver on i.MX6UL because the i.MX6UL does not have an SSI unit!

#define this driver
The FSL_SAI driver does not touch the audmux address space in any way.
The simple-card audio driver works perfectly well with the FSL_SAI
driver on i.MX6UL.
