Register 19: GPIO Lock (GPIOLOCK), offset 0x520
The GPIOLOCK register enables write access to the GPIOCR register (see page 176). Writing
0x1ACC.E551 to the GPIOLOCK register will unlock the GPIOCR register. Writing any other value
to the GPIOLOCK register re-enables the locked state. Reading the GPIOLOCK register returns
the lock status rather than the 32-bit value that was previously written. Therefore, when write accesses
are disabled, or locked, reading the GPIOLOCK register returns 0x00000001. When write accesses
are enabled, or unlocked, reading the GPIOLOCK register returns 0x00000000.

GPIO Lock
A write of the value 0x1ACC.E551 unlocks the GPIO Commit (GPIOCR)
register for write access.
A write of any other value or a write to the GPIOCR register reapplies
the lock, preventing any register updates. A read of this register returns
the following values:
