It could be, but I don't see that we ever needs to do that - at least
not before we have written some other non-zero values to them (through
the helper functions).

Hmm, so in principle this change seems quite okay, but I am hesitant
to pick it up - unless it really addresses a problem that you have
observed.

The reason is, this change may lead to avoiding to re-write the
register with the same value it got during boot - and who knows what
is best here.

Kind regards
