You mean periph_interrupt()?

Really? Wow that is awful. Or is this because ACC_ENABLE bit is
always set now and never cleared?

Do we need to read the hardware to figure this out? After earlier
patches in this series we would never clear the
SPMI_PIC_ACC_ENABLE_BIT after one of the irqs in a peripheral is
unmasked for the first time (which looks to be fixing a bug in
the existing driver BTW). So in practice, this should almost
always be true.

In the one case that it isn't true, we'll be handling some other
irq for another peripheral and then hardware will tell us there's
an interrupt for a peripheral that doesn't have any interrupts
unmasked. We would call periph_interrupt() and then that
shouldn't see any interrupts in the status register for that
APID. So we do some more work, but nothing happens still. Did I
miss something? What is this fixing?
