We definitely misunderstood each other then - the only reason I added
the checks is after what (I thought) you suggested in the previous
revision.

The newly added (above) check allows us to do that now.  There can
only be one value coming in (CS_MODE_PERF) and the current type can
only be CS_MODE_PERF/DISABLED.

Yes, we can get here when mode is set to CS_MODE_DISABLED.  Someone
can read the /dev/xyz entry whenever they want, including when a sink
hasn't been enabled.
