How about changing the parameter such that it is a filter mask? The default
value of 0x0 would accept all remotes. For non-zero values, each bit set in
the parameter would filter the device address corresponding to that bit, e.g.
0x1 would filter address 0x0, 0x80000000 would filter address 0x1f, etc.
