Not sure I get you here - this hander is used for registering interrupt handlers
in case INTa is used, and multiple modules [both QED and the appropriate
protocol driver] need to use it.
Turning this into an explicit union would require QED to be familiar with the
ISR cookies of all the various protocol drivers. While possible, it'll create
additional .h dependencies between those in a direction that currently doesn't
exist [I.e., QED would have to include protocol driver .h for it].

Depends. Do you consider wasted time to be a reward? ;-)
