5 Description:
6                 Value that exists only for mux devices that can be
7                 written to control the behaviour of the multiplexer on
8                 idle. Possible values:
9                 -2 - disconnect on idle, i.e. deselect the last used
10                      channel, which is useful when there is a device
11                      with an address that conflicts with another
12                      device on another mux on the same parent bus.
13                 -1 - leave the mux as-is, which is the most optimal
14                      setting in terms of I2C operations and is the
15                      default mode.
16                 0..<nchans> - set the mux to a predetermined channel,
17                      which is useful if there is one channel that is
18                      used almost always, and you want to reduce the
19                      latency for normal operations after rare
20                      transactions on other channels
