No, without SO there is no spin-mixing. They are absolutely independent
of each other.
Put a k-point into case.klist_band; x lapw1 -up -band; x lapw1 -dn
-band; x lapw2 -up -band; x lapw2 -dn -band
and you can plot the spin-density of this k-point using xcrysden or x
lapw5 -up with the proper in5 file.
