We may have a problem here. This check seems like it exists to stop you from
comparing an mdev's apm/aqm with itself. Obviously comparing an mdev's newly
updated apm/aqm with itself would cause a false positive sharing check, right?
If this is the case, I think the comment should be changed to reflect that.

Aside from the comment, what stops this particular series of if statements from
allowing us to configure a second mdev with the exact same apm/aqm values as an
existing mdev? If we do, then this check's continue will short circuit the rest
of the function thereby allowing that 2nd mdev even though it should be a
sharing violation.
