I'd agree with this, would normally expect to see only the relevant parts of the
register 'cleared'. Usually this is done by explicitly picking those bits
out (normally writing 1 to the bit to clear the interrupt source).

If there is anything else of interest in that register this is nasty!

Hmm. looking at the bits you have defined and the way it is used you only
ever have one interrupt at a time possibly occurring at the moment?

If this is actually the case, then why read the register at all?

If there is anything in the other bits of that register it would be interesting to
know what is there!
