These conditionals on inversion seem weird and counterintuitive. If we're going with this approach it would probably be clearer to define a custom operation for the affected controls that wraps the standard one and adds the LED setting rather than keying off invert like this.
Currently the sof soundwire driver has no generic led control yet. This patch can handle the led control needs for MIC mute LED, definitely the patch is a short term solution. There is a feature request discussion when we started to implement this solution. https://github.com/thesofproject/linux/issues/2496#issuecomment-713892620
The workable way for now is that we put the LED mute control to the codec driver. When there is new and full sound LED solution implemented, this part will be also optimized. The Hardware privacy feature needs this patch to handle the Mic mute led state change. Before that full solution ready in kernel, could we take this as short term solution?
