if i am reading this correctly this is equivalent to :

if (!offload && (curre_mode != mode)) 
offlad is false then curr_mode and mode must be DRV or GENERIC .. 

Naw, if curr_mode is not set, i.e. nothing installed now, we don't care
about the diff.

better if you keep bitwise operations for actual bitmasks, mode and
curr_mode are not bitmask, they can hold one value each .. according to
your logic.. 

Well, they hold one bit each, whether one bit is a bitmap perhaps is
disputable? :)

I think the logic is fine.

What happened to my request to move the change in behaviour for
disabling to a separate patch, tho, Bjorn? :)
