Okay. so after disable sysfs session, to check former session
check whether comprator has matched.

But I don't think this is the reason for locate ss_status into "config"
since its write purpose is not to configure but the "clear" former bit.
That's why I think it's enough to clear when the new sysfs session starts.

Am I missing something?

Thanks!
