Register 20: GPIO Commit (GPIOCR), offset 0x524
The GPIOCR register is the commit register. The value of the GPIOCR register determines which
bits of the GPIOAFSEL register are committed when a write to the GPIOAFSEL register is performed.
If a bit in the GPIOCR register is a zero, the data being written to the corresponding bit in the
GPIOAFSEL register will not be committed and will retain its previous value. If a bit in the GPIOCR
register is a one, the data being written to the corresponding bit of the GPIOAFSEL register will be
committed to the register and will reflect the new value.
The contents of the GPIOCR register can only be modified if the GPIOLOCK register is unlocked.
Writes to the GPIOCR register are ignored if the GPIOLOCK register is locked.
Important: This register is designed to prevent accidental programming of the registers that control
connectivity to the JTAG/SWD debug hardware. By initializing the bits of the GPIOCR
register to 0 for PB7 and PC[3:0], the JTAG/SWD debug port can only be converted
to GPIOs through a deliberate set of writes to the GPIOLOCK, GPIOCR, and the
corresponding registers.
Because this protection is currently only implemented on the JTAG/SWD pins on PB7
and PC[3:0], all of the other bits in the GPIOCR registers cannot be written with 0x0.
These bits are hardwired to 0x1, ensuring that it is always possible to commit new
values to the GPIOAFSELregister bits of these other pins.

Software should not rely on the value of a reserved bit. To provide
compatibility with future products, the value of a reserved bit should be
preserved across a read-modify-write operation.
