[210] GPIO: Bits in GPIO LATCH register are incorrectly set to 1

This anomaly applies to Revision 3, build codes QFAA-Gx0, QFAB-Gx0, CIAA-Gx0.

It was inherited from the previous IC revision Revision 2.

Symptoms

The GPIO.LATCH[n] register is unexpectedly set to 1 (Latched).

Conditions

Set GPIO.PIN_CNF[n].SENSE at low level (3) at the same time as PIN_CNF[n].INPUT is set to Connect (0).

Consequences

The GPIO.LATCH[n] register is set to 1 (Latched). This could have side effects, depending on how the chip is configured to use this LATCH register.

Workaround

Always configure PIN_CNF[n].INPUT before PIN_CNF[n].SENSE.
