It might be safer to initialize the values with -1 in case when the callback isn't available?
Make sense, will do.

We may need to remove the control element upon the driver removal, too? In theory, you can unload the offload stuff while snd-usb-audio is still active.
This is managing the control for the ASoC platform card that supports offloading. If we compile the different kernel entities as modules, we see that the soc_usb layer has the following users:
soc_usb 16384 3 q6usb,snd_usb_audio_qmi,snd_soc_qcom_offload_utils
So we'd need to remove all these modules before we can unload soc_usb. The entity which would be related to the kcontrols created for the ASoC sound card would be the q6usb module. Since the q6usb module is tightly coupled with the platform soundcard itself in our design, for the q6usb module to be removed, we have to remove the entire ASoC sound card. (in which the kcontrols will also be removed)
However, that might not always be the case...so its a good idea to just manually remove the kcontrols in soc-usb as you guided.
Thanks Wesley Cheng
