Zeroing the page registers at the end of every paged transaction is just
overhead (40% overhead on a 1-register access, 25% on a 4-register
transaction). According to the spec the peripheral should only use the
values in the page registers if the address is paged, and since the page
registers are always overwritten at the start of a paged transaction there
will never be a transaction that uses the stale values from a previous
paged transaction.
For peripherals that need large amounts of data to be transferred, for
example firmware or filter coefficients, the overhead of page register
zeroing can become quite significant.
