Hi Linus,

Thanks for the review.

This will come up next time too so I wanted to mention that INEN here
means "input enable." The PORT design has two registers for
controlling pin direction, one to enable/disable output drivers (DIR)
and one to enable input drivers (INEN) to be able to read the pin
state from the gpio data register. If I recall the bare metal
reference code toggled both but we can review if setting INEN for all
pins and leaving it is acceptable as well to simplify things.

Thanks,
Greg
