I don't, but maybe @fritsch does - this change pre-dates my involvement with OpenELEC, and unfortunately the commit message is completely useless (which is fairly typical) so it just appears to be one of those random commits that may have made sense at the time but quite possibly no longer does.
With improvements through VideoPlayer in Kodi 17 perhaps this value is no longer needed, although to be honest nobody else has complained.
We made a test with some 20 pariticipants and the result was on average 175 ms was what those guys needed. That's why it came into OpenELEC at this time. The commit you see there was not the original commit, but that PR was taken and pushed, the history of it was gone. The original commit was by me, but can't find it at the moment.
Just remember: This fixes a constant offset introduced by HW, it's not a workaround for kodi's sync code or something like that.
