This is something that Andrew raised in the previous version. My take
on this is that properly implemented HW should give us something that
matches the spec (in the 0-15 range), and I don't think that guarding
against that is useful at this stage.
My understanding is that once the architecture allows using the 16-31
range, we'll either use it directly because it is just a natural
extension to the existing range, or they mean something different
altogether and we'll get a new discovery bit somewhere.
