23.5.15 Write Protection Registers
To prevent any single software error that may corrupt PIO behavior, certain address spaces can be write-protected by
setting the WPEN bit in the “PIO Write Protect Mode Register” (PIO_WPMR).
If a write access to the protected registers is detected, then the WPVS flag in the PIO Write Protect Status Register
(PIO_WPSR) is set and the field WPVSRC indicates in which register the write access has been attempted.
The WPVS flag is reset by writing the PIO Write Protect Mode Register (PIO_WPMR) with the appropriate access key,
WPKEY.
The protected registers are:
 “PIO Enable Register” on page 235
 “PIO Disable Register” on page 236
