Hi Mark,

First of all, thanks for taking the rest of the series!

Given the incompleteness of the datasheets this might be safest; a lot
of the reserved areas appear to have undocumented functions. But it
works as is of course, so it is not high priority... I don't know what happens
when this particular bit is cleared, but it doesn't change anything for the
pcm5142 that I am able to detect. So, no real problem with dropping 3/7.

Cheers,
Peter
