Actually now I think about it the problem is even worse. On older systems
IRQ delivery for SMP machines is asynchronous. So the following can occur


device raises IRQ line
IRQ request hits APIC bus

We write IRQ off
We clear IRQ pending

We read back to ensure the write took


IRQ arrives on CPU APIC

(and yes this happens on dual P3 boxes - NE2K has some fantastic bugs at
one point due to this)
