Btw, can we get rid of all the "dev->tbusy" and "dev->interrupt" flags,
and just use a regular spinlock or something around each driver?
dev->tbusy has always been a bug, with no redeeming features. It's really
only a way to say "yes, I have a bug, and I want to know about it" instead
of fixing the problem properly.
