This is not exactly an answer to your question, but it seems that
those bits are only valid if "Alternate-Direct" message is used.
Currently the driver does not support that message.

I think the correct thing to do now is to remove the two lines from
the driver where those bits (ORI-HSL and ORI-Aux) are set.

Let me know if that's OK, and I'll update the series.

thanks,
