Thinking about it afterwards, I fully agree :)

Here are some examples for vendor sources collected by Krzysztof that
make use of this register on several Exynos4/5 devices.

* Galaxy S4 (Exynos 5410) [1]
* Samsung Galaxy Tab S10.5 (Exynos 5420) [2]
* Galaxy Note 10.1 (Exynos 4412) [3]
* Galaxy S2/S3 (Exynos 4210/4412) [4]

If you could get definitive confirmation, that would be great of course.

Thank you for your effort.
