The GPIO register reflects the value on the port.
Reading from this register reads the port. Writing to this
register modifies the Output Latch (OLAT) register.

Legend:
R = Readable bit W = Writable bit U = Unimplemented bit, read as ‘0’
-n = Value at POR ‘1’ = Bit is set ‘0’ = Bit is cleared x = Bit is unknown
bit 7-0 GP7:GP0: These bits reflect the logic level on the pins <7:0>
1 = Logic-high.
0 = Logic-low.
