I know I asked for this to be placed inside this if(), but I'd prefer it
if it were before any register state was touched, so if it returns an
error then no register state is affected by the pcs_config() call.

IIRC, we don't touch any state before the if(), so it should be a
matter of placing it as one of the first things in the if() block.

Thanks!
