I can see how we can miss a second, third etc. back-to-back interrupt,
but that's always a problem with edge triggered interrupts. But the
rearranging done in this patchset closes the race where we are left with
a pending interrupt flag without ever calling its handler.

I couldn't spot any problems, so on all 4 patches:
