+As per Intel Platform Controller Hub (PCH) EDS since Skylake, a GPIO PAD register
+supports four different types of GPIO reset as:

+Each GPIO Community has a Pad Configuration Lock register for a GPP allowing locking
+specific register fields in the PAD configuration register.
+
+The Pad Config Lock registers reset type is default hardcoded to **Power Good** and
+it's **not** configurable by GPIO PAD DW0.PadRstCfg. Hence, it may appear that for a GPP,
+the Pad Reset Config (DW0 Bit 31) is configured differently from `Power Good`.
+
+This would create confusion where the Pad configuration is returned to its `default`
+value but remains `locked`, this would prevent software to reprogram the GPP.
+Additionally, this means software can't rely on GPIOs being reset by PLTRST# or Sx entry.
+
+Hence, as per GPIO BIOS Writers Guide (BWG) it's recommended to change the Pad Reset
+Configuration for lock GPP as `Power Good` so that pad configuration and lock bit are
+always in sync and can be reset at the same time.
