I am still seeing that DEVICE_DEFAULT(0) is read back:

$ ./mstconfig --enable_verbosity -d 01:00.0 -b ./mlxconfig_host.db query 
SWP_L4_CHECKSUM_MODE

Device #1:
----------

Device type:        ConnectX7
Name:               CX71143DMC-CDAE_FB_Ax
Description:        ConnectX-7 Ethernet adapter card; 100 GbE OCP3.0; 
Single-port QSFP; Multi Host; 2 Host; PCIe 4.0 x16; Crypto and Secure Boot
Device:             01:00.0

Configurations:                  Default             Current       Next Boot
         SWP_L4_CHECKSUM_MODE DEVICE_DEFAULT(0) DEVICE_DEFAULT(0)    
DEVICE_DEFAULT(0)
