same question as before, do we need spaces?
I think spaces are currently used as a delimiter, so I'll remove the spaces.
And if we have controls, why do we need component strings? The component
string is not dynamic to the best of my knowledge, this could be
problematic if the card is no longer capable of supporting this stream,
while a control can be updated at will.
Maybe I misunderstood your comment here:

At the time, I didn't include the kcontrols on the USB SND portion of
it, which was added after this series. My interpretation was that there
were userspace entities that could query for general information about
what the card supports based on the components string, or sound card
name. I treated this as an independent identifier, since the change to
add the offload capable jack was present.
Thanks
