Assuming "CPWM" is clearly explained in the HW documentation for this
chip (I have no idea if that's actually the case), then is it still
necessary to explain what this means in *detail*? Perhaps simply "see
section XXX in the TRM" or "see register XXX, bit YYY in the HW
documentation" would be enough?
