OK static keys would probably work. I am not sure that the additional
branches for each register access would actually be causing a noticeable
performance impact. Pretty much any chip where this controller is used
has a DMA interface that you program and kick, the PIO is already
assumed to be slow, and each register access is about 200ns on STB chips
at least.
