When we configure the pads, we set the input enable bit which will set the pin
to bidirectional mode.
The 4pin McBSP ports will get their FSR/CLKR from the actual pin. If the pin
is set to output only, no signal will come back to McBSP -> capture will not
work. This is why we need to set input enable, so that the signal going out
will be able to get back to McBSP's FSR/CLKR internal line.
