I'm OK with this, but I do wonder why this check is in mask_event()
instead of in switchtec_event_isr(). AFAICT it doesn't depend on
anything in the mask_all_events() -> mask_event() path, and doing it
in switchtec_event_isr() would avoid the CSR read in mask_event().
But maybe it logically belongs here. I'll merge it as-is for now.
