I must be dense. Please point it out to me. It is relevant, because
you've asked to put the GP register writes in the pinmux driver.

Correct. They are SoC-specific as per the TRM. I am using the mmc_id
(periph_id value) to determine whether to write SDIO1CFG or SDIO3CFG
in V2, going up this morning.
