Yeah, I don't know that we have any valid use-case for this.  It
really is just an idea. Maybe a bad idea. It was something that looked
like it could map into the configuration space so I coded it up. 

I did think it might be useful if we could disable workarounds for early
steppings that may not be applicable for later steppings without the
need to release a new version of the driver.  As it sits, it doesn't
support this use-case so would need a bit more work. For some embedded
appliance type devices, customers are sometimes more willing to take a
configuration change than a new driver.

The patches for this should be easy to drop without effecting anything
else.
