I don't see any fragility? But I wouldn't complain if there was some
simpler way to enable an irq in such a way that only new and fresh
irqs are considered.

It doesn't appear to work. I still get irqs that reasonably should
only have happened *during* the handling of a previous irq. And I
still need to dance when enabling the irq, otherwise I get spurious
hits.

There's obviously no way to determine which of the timeout or the
interrupt that happens first without some race handling, so I don't
know what you mean? If the timeout happens first, there is also a
need to handle late hits from the irq that might come in during the
preparation for the next step in the binary search. It gets messy
quickly compared to the simplicity of the current implementation.

Cheers,

Missing ')' at the end.
