Which_OSC bits?
EDR code will only get triggered if OS advertises the EDR support (which
also means OS supports AER and DPC), and both AER and DPC is owned by
the firmware. During the EDR notification, the OS is allowed to touch AER
and DPC registers. So there is no problem with EDR code using AER routines.
