Obviously, Sasuke is there to forgive Itachi after Kabuto is defeated, and that will give Itachi closure so he will dissolve and rest in peace.
I'm pretty sure the mind control is a separate jutsu, as evident by how Orochimaru did it to the former kages after summoning them. Of course, this won't be confirmed until Kabutoro finally does release the jutsu, which will result in Itachi fading away as well.
