This patch was accepted in irq-pio before.

Patch against upstream (8b316a3973f05e572b4edeeda9072987f6bbaa44).
For your review, thanks.

The intention here is to catch missed interrupts; due to flaky hardware or buggy drivers, we may miss an interrupt, but still be able to complete the qc in the timeout handler. Thus, if the ac_err_mask() indicates a BSY or DRQ or DF is asserted, it will indicate an error, otherwise not.

So, NAK, and we should fix irq-pio for this as well...
