Alternatively, we could steal one bit from the "reg" bitifield to
add a "present" bit, without increasing the table size:

        static const struct {
                u16 present : 1;
                u16 reg : 10;
                u16 bit : 5;
         } pullups[] = {

While 10 bits is not sufficient in general (the PFC register block size
is 0x50c), it's good enough to address the PUx registers. And if needed,
we can switch from register byte offsets to register indices, indexing the
32-bit register file.
