What causes the modes to be switched? From reading the driver, that
only seems possible to do at boot/load time when the driver reads the
platform data, right? After that, nothing happens to the device from
what I can tell.

Is something going to cause the state of the device to change in the
future?

Can you please switch all of the dev_info() calls to dev_dbg()? There's
no need to tell the world what is going on in this driver, no one really
cares. And if they do, they can dynamically enable debugging and get
the information then :)

thanks,
