The bits in register TxConfig used for chip identification aren't
sufficient for the number of upcoming chip versions. Therefore a register
is added with extended chip version information, for compatibility
purposes it's called TX_CONFIG_V2. First chip to use the extended chip
identification is RTL9151AS.
