Yes, it's for UCM, but even if we don't consider this purpose, the kernel API should return some reasonable information rather than very generic (or empty) strings which are used in the native ALSA utilities for example. So, I think that we should allow to "fix" this info also from the user space rather than to extend the existing API.
Half the point with UCM was supposed to be to rewrite the control names we get from the devices into standard things that are useful for userspace, having to remap things for UCM doesn't sound right.
