This section is CHRP-specific. The cs4232 driver also worked on the
CHRP LongTrail.
But I don't remember if the parameter values above also applied to LongTrail.
I do remember it didn't work without specifing the right parameters, so you
probably want to keep this section.

In personal conversations with technical people, I call myself a hacker. But
when I'm talking to journalists I just say "programmer" or something like that.
