The general userspace expectation is that the detection is always active
and consistent rather than varying at runtime - runtime variability
might be a bit surprising for it, and even then variability in what is
detected based on other settings is a bit surprising.  If the hardware
is that limited I guess it's about all that can be done but I'm still
not clear what the use cases are for configuring the levels (as opposed
ot the routing).
