Hmm.. the two pull-ups combined would be a stronger pull-up, eg. lower
resistance, right? So you'd need to calculate it using
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Series_and_parallel_circuits#Resistance_units_2

The problem is that the documentation doesn't actually mention what will happen
if you combine the strong pull-up with the regular bias. My best guess for what
happens if you enable the strong pull-up and the regular pull-down is that you
create a sort of voltage divider. But how do you represent that as an Ohm value?

We would kind of have to, otherwise the pinconf_get callbacks have states that
it can't represent.
