No, it's not.  This function is only for initial configuration which
should only be written when the channel is allocated.  In fact, by
calling it here in runtime_config, you are introducing a serious bug:
other logical channels on the same physical channel will stop because of
the SSLNK/SDLNK of the physical channel being zeroed.

The runtime config already makes it the hardware in the existing code,
via d40_*_cfg().
