With ALSA System on Chip (ASoC) porting is pretty simple. There is
already driver for AIC33 (sound/soc/codecs/tlv320aic3x.c), ASoC OMAP
platfrom drivers (sound/soc/omap) and also machine drivers using AIC33
(sound/soc/omap/n810.c and sound/soc/davinci/davinci-evm.c).

So what you need is basically to write your own machine driver using
mostly copy-paste approach.

At least some few OSS applications I have tried were working fine with
OSS emulation.
