It was all noise. Guess it's some byte alignment issue, but
I didn't manage to solve it.

The problem here is that I used sunxi_defconfig instead of the arch
defconfig during testing. The difference is that in "our" config the
modules are built-in and thus there is no module_init.
However I've managed to get it working in v3 (it's not submitted
yet).
I've added separate entry in the Kconfig of type bool. This is to
manage the SND_SOC dependency. The current patch will fail if
SND_SOC=m and SUN4I_HDMI=y for example.
Then I've dropped this as it's useless:

In sun4i_hdmi_enc.c I've added __init and __exit
functions where I register/unregister the additional platform_driver.
Thus we get 2 platform drivers from one module, which is not something
uncommon.
If you like this approach I can submit v3.
