Right, we could reference count it though and only clear and set
the bit when we mask and unmask the last irq in the peripheral.

Ok. So this is again about handling the case where an interrupt
is pending out of the bootloader?

Hmm. I seemed to miss the fact that periph_interrupt() will see
an unmasked interrupt and think it's valid. I thought that only
SPMI_PIC_ACC_ENABLE_BIT was broken, but you're saying that the
status register for a particular peripheral will always latch
interrupts even if we haven't enabled them?
