The Wii U GamePad reads the TSF and uses that to configure its
internal clock. All video and audio packets sent to the device have to
contain a timestamp that roughly matches (1000us window) this internal
clock. This means our library has to be able to read the TSF from the
AP NIC to generate these timestamps.
