IMO, that's the question: how we'll enable this in future.  If the
binding of the control/mute mapping is provided via UCM, it's supposed
to be changeable by each user.  Then the current sysfs permission
doesn't fit.  OTOH, if it's 0666, it's accessible to all users even
remotely, which is worse than the access with the normal sound device
file.  Or if it's supposed to be changed via udev stuff or systemd?
Or is it just for debugging?

Through a quick glance over the series, I'm fine to take those
patches, but the only concern is the sysfs entries.  Basically, once
when we use sysfs entries, it's set in stone.  So we should be very
clear about our strategy how to deploy the control/mute mapping
regarding using those sysfs entries.

OTOH, if the interface is thought for debugging or development
purpose, it could be done in debugfs, which we can keep playing in
further development, too.

And, BTW, the mute LED mode setup doesn't have to be sysfs entries;
we'd need primarily only the flags for inverted LED behavior, and
those are only two, so it could be simply module options.  Then it's
even easier for users to set up than tweaking sysfs entries.


thanks,
