Do you need to lock a single register read?

If this is a boolean control (it looked like one) it should be called
Switch but it's not clear to me what exactly is being controlled here or
why it's something that should be exposed to userspace.

No need for locking on the reset (and doesn't this mean that the control
state is going to be changed underneath userspace)?
