I think spaces are currently used as a delimiter, so I'll remove the spaces.

Maybe I misunderstood your comment here:

https://lore.kernel.org/linux-usb/925d7c03-c288-49a4-8bcd-395b32810d75@linux.intel.com/

At the time, I didn't include the kcontrols on the USB SND portion of 
it, which was added after this series.  My interpretation was that there 
were userspace entities that could query for general information about 
what the card supports based on the components string, or sound card 
name.  I treated this as an independent identifier, since the change to 
add the offload capable jack was present.

Thanks
Wesley Cheng
