Crap, I totally forgot about this. Doug reported the problem off-list
back in December, but it got lost somehow. Sorry.

I believe this is the right way to handle this hardware bug (IMR is
always read as 0 on one particular SoC), but please document this in a
comment.

You should also keep the flush (read of IMR) regardless (to make sure
the write has reached the peripheral), and remember to remove the now
unused mask variable.
