It really doesn't matter, it will just sent enabled to one even though it's
already one.

You could simplify this to be:

static int enable_monitor(struct rv_monitor_def *mdef)
{
	int retval;

	if (mdef->monitor->enabled)
		return 0;

	retval = mdef->monitor->enable();

	if (!retval)
		mdef->monitor->enabled = 1;

	return retval;
}
