doesnt make sense. i already enhanced this code to support beeliner 
(99xx) and newers.
the code is that much different that this check need to be treaded in a 
indivudual way
reg_slottime_conf is hardware defacto specific since the value is taken 
from a hardware specific register.
you cannot handle this outside this function since other chips have 
different registers.
