As per previous version comment.

Hold on, the registers are 16-bit wide, but their halves are sparsed!
So, I guess 8 and 8 with helpers to get hi and lo parts are essential.


TABLE 5: DEVICE CONFIGURATION REGISTERS SHOWN IN BYTE ALIGNMENT

This is basically represents two banks out of 6 8-bit registers each.
