I asked the hardware team about the "invalid" in the SPCHG bit and then
this "invalid" means "ignored", not "prohibited". So, even if we write
the SPCHG to 0, no bad things/undefined behaviors happen.

So, I don't think the documentation conflict exists about the MACCTLR register.
But, what do you think?
