For the atomic_check stuff (where we do change the passed-in mode) this
would be correct, and calling order and layering would matter. But this
just validates the mode in turn with everything, not taking any
cross-component constraint or other configuration-dependent constraints
into account. Hence it doesn't matter in which order we call stuff.

Note that the passed-in mode is const, so you can't escape. And v3 of
patch 1 now has added wording that you're not allowed to look at anything
else dynamie either.

Does that address your concern?
