I'm a little confused as it seems to me that in the orignal code
if we were setting high resolution 'off' we would fall back to 8
bits for either type of device.  Now you just have a check on the
device type?

The result will be that we read more bytes than we want to
in show_DAC.

I'd need a pretty strong argument to persuade me it is worth
supporting the 8 bit mode at all btw on devices that will go
higher.  It adds interface complexity and the number of usecases
where the saving in bus traffic is worthwhile are probably fairly
few!
