Since this function used to reset the array to default I was expecting 
its callers to now reset the new array (more below).

I am wondering why new array is not reset instead of original at this 
call site? oh ... I see it is removed in following patch BUT it mentions 
that it is ok because reset_all_ctrls() does similar reset ... but it 
does not seem to do so for mbps_val.
