Using .peripheral_config wasn't something I had initially considered, but I
agree that this is preferable in the sense that it avoids introducing the
additional exported APIs. I'm not entirely sure whether it's clean to use
it for non-peripheral settings in the strict sense, but there seem to be
precedents such as stm32_mdma_dma_config, so I guess it seems acceptable.
If I'm missing something, please correct me.

I'll rework this part as you suggested. Thanks for the guidance.
