Don't you want to wait until you actually enable interrupts here to set
interrupts_enabled to true? Otherwise, if devdata->paused is true, you will be
out of sync.

Unless I'm mistaken, it seems that visorinput_pause and visorinput_open or close
can be called in parallel on different cpus. As such the state of
interrupts_enabled may change during the execution of this function, which would
lead to interrupts not getting properly enabled.
