Agreed. Ideally we'd find out why exactly the slot number must
be used for accessing some of the registers to have a better
explanation to put in there, aside from stating that only one
slot is supported but the number must be set.

Could it be that this is some form of pinmuxing, i.e. that each
controller could in theory be used for any of the slots but you
have to pick one of them?
