Just eye balling the code it really feels crazy that this is faster than
reading two registers, but I believe that may just be the case given the
speed of the GIC.
As an alternative to this loop, you could keep a counter for the number
of requested EOI MIs and whenever we program an LR with the EOI bit set,
then we increment the counter, and whenever we clear such an LR, we
decrement the counter, and then you can just check here if it's
non-zero. What do you think? Is it worth it? Does it make the code
even worse?
I can also write that on top of this patch if you'd like.
In any case, for this functionality:
