Why not fold these to a single *if*?
I suppose I could do that. Thanks

You didn't document this change. Ideally, it should be in a separate
patch.
Nothing has changed. Instead of using the '16' magic value, I just documented
that bit along with the IAR one.
You should have noted that in the changelog, at least.
