Support for omap3evm board is already there in ASoC tree:

http://git.kernel.org/?p=linux/kernel/git/broonie/sound-2.6.git;a=blob;f=sound/soc/omap/omap3evm.c;h=f484dcd634089562727d189f14615cbf84246d60;hb=97cef58521288ade8d957e4d568a3d409dea7d64

You need to pick that machine file from SoC git tree and modify
sound/soc/omap/Kconfig & Makefile accordingly. I guess you already
have the kernel working for your omap3evm board.
