I'm not entirely sure if enabling the INTREN_ANYCHINTR_EN bit to 1 would
affect the current default scenario where each channel is assigned its
own interrupt. The hardware design of the chip I'm currently working
with does not support testing the scenario of individual interrupts per
channel. If it doesn't cause any issues, I will change it to an
unconditional configuration.
