Ah, didn't know you've got the docs now.  It seems they are only available
under NDA, unfortunately.

According to Werner Koch, the XIRCREG40_RMASK0 is not the register to
fiddle, it only contains an interrupt bit mask.  There's another bit
that makes the chip not /sending/ a CRC, but he didn't find anything
quickly that would it make not delivering the CRC with the received
frame.
