When I change the values (the entire 8 bit), they take effect after
the next compilation of the kernel. They are not obsolete. If you mean
the most significant bit (or possibly 2 bits), I agree; they really
seem to be obsolete. However I read something about a blinking
attribute in the grf_rtreg.h file. Not quite sure if this applies as
well for the grf_cv.c file I was teaking?
