ALSA control core necessarily sends notification to userspace subscribers for any change from userspace application, while it doesn't for the hardware's voluntary change. This commit adds optimization for the attribute. Even if read value is different from written value, the test reports success as long as the target control element has the attribute. On the other hand, the difference is itself reported for developers' convenience.
