Can you clear it with a single read at the start of the read_oneshot?

Not ideal... It's another case of hardware doing something unhelpful
for software. We'll have to paper over it as usual ;)
Go with which ever route you think works out nicest.
Sorry for the delay on this reply - I missed your reply on my first
pass through my emails in amongst the other parts of the thread.

If the interrupt 'stuck' case wasn't occuring you could basically
let the buffered path run once in order to get the oneshot read.
Thus you could use an interrupt instead of a sleep.
Doesn't really matter though.

You could perhaps get a later reading if you did that?
I don't suppose it really matters.
