With respects to the PCM devices exposed by the ASoC card, the USB Mixer 
controls which "Multimedia" (ASM) path can be routed to the USB BE DAI.

The kcontrols you are mentioning are controlling which USB card and USB 
PCM device to execute the offloading on.  As of now, at least for the 
QCOM implementation, we support only offloading on one path/USB 
interface.  I can't comment on how other offloading solutions look like, 
but we pass the USB PCM and card index as part of our AFE port open 
command (done from USB BE DAI).  This will result in a USB QMI message 
back (from ADSP) to our USB SND offload driver, which carries all the 
information about the selected card and PCM index to execute offloading on.

One thing I can do is to actually make the kcontrols for selecting the 
PCM and card devices to look at the num_supported_streams.  This would 
at least allow for vendors that have support for more potential 
offloading streams to select more than one.

Thanks
Wesley Cheng
