At what point is INTn going low, causing you all these problems? I've
yet to see a real description of the race. Please give us a blow by
blow of how the race happens. And then explain how your fix actually
fixes this.
Also, i'm not yet convinced this hardware can actually work correctly
with edge interrupts. You can probably reduce the size of the race
window, but i don't think you can eliminate it. And if you cannot
eliminate it, at some point it is going to hit you.
