The comments in this file are usually only about the protocol itself,
because this is what the driver needs to know.  The fact that all
SysEx's have a known limit of 9 bytes is interesting for the driver,
but the contents of the SysEx messages are important only to programs
that want to control the MPD16; I'm not sure if this even belongs into
the kernel.  (In theory, this comment belongs into that control
application.)
