For this particular register I've not seen any documented "correct"
value. I have no idea where the values used in the code came from. If
you have a document that has them, I'd like to see it.

There are certainly some register values that are specified as raw hex
numbers in some docs, but I've noticed that in some cases even those
don't agree with our code :(
