I don't think the ABI cares about how many bits are sent, but rather it cares about the precision. I'm not keen on this ABI if we can possibly avoid it. It is highly device specific and therefore unlikely to ever get used by any standard userspace code. Given I'm fairly sure no linux host is ever going to get anywhere near the maximum rates this device supports, perhaps we should just always use precision mode and not worry about this detail?
