Can it be that this reset is not needed because it should have still got this value already
in the software refactoring I proposed here?

Do you want that I rebase my update suggestion for this software module on a published commit
that is more recent than 2016-09-22 (d6ae162bd13998a6511e5efbc7c19ab542ba1555 for example)?
