Thank you for your feedback.
Looking the commit log and other use cases, I learned that it is the
check when we use opaque MPI; Internally, when MPI is opaque, it holds a
information of number of bits.
The check:
8*VALUELEN < VALUELEN
detects the case where it cannot be represented by an opaque MPI.
