Currently dev.pcm.X.mode is calculated only once in pcm_sysinit(), which
is called by pcm_register() during attach, but this can result in
inconsistencies.
For some context, what pcm_mode_init() does is, it checks if "playcount"
is positive, in which case we assume the device supports playback. The
same is done for "reccount" for recording, and if "mixer_dev" is not
NULL, we know the device has a mixer.
The "playcount" and "reccount" variables correspond to the number of
_primary_ playback/recording channels, so we can assume that the primary
channels have been created before reaching pcm_mode_init(). However, for
the mixer that's not always the case. If the mixer is created _after_
pcm_register(), as is the case for snd_dummy(4) for example,
pcm_mode_init() will see that "mixer_dev" is NULL, and report that the
device does not have a mixer, whereas in reality we just created it
afterwards.
While this could be fixed by simply creating the mixers always before
pcm_register(), it is better to be robust and calculate the mode
dynamically.
