On closer inspection of the user manual and the SDK code, there is no reset control for R_PIO in the A23, but there is still a APB0 gate. Also the register space is still at 0x01f02c00, the address space for R_PIO. I know the user manual lists the PL pins under the PIO controller, however the section doesn't list registers for them. It would seem they are still separate blocks. Also the kernel code never bothers to enable the R_PIO clock, possibly because it was enabled by U-boot. > So we're not quite in the same situation.
