The default condition would be taken when this field is 3. The value 3 
is reserved, and so no current device should use this value. That said, 
I don't see any downsides of doing so. If the value 3 means something 
else in later revisions of the standard, this code would need to change 
anyway. If not, we would use a relatively sane default for devices with 
a faulty BFPT.

I haven't received any comments on my series so far. If end up having to
re-roll it, I will add this change. Otherwise, I'm not sure if it is a 
good idea to re-roll a 16-patch series for a one liner that isn't fixing 
some major bug. In that case, maybe you can send an independent patch 
that does this after mine is merged?
