I'd like to hear other users'/developers' opinions about *which*
direction to make this consistent into.  Should we:

[ ]  Use 'x' consistently for all efuse bits that are not defined for
     a particular part, or
[ ]  always use 'i' for all bit positions of the entire efuse byte?

(I think lfuse and hfuse are always a full byte.  Otherwise, this
question would extend to them as well.)

Never trust an operating system you don't have sources for. ;-)
