Thinking this through again I don't see the race anymore. I've forgotten
that masking things in IMR also prevents stuff from showing up in IIR and
hence a SDE irq after clearing DE irqs can't leave garbage behind in
DEIIR. So no need to clear things in the order the irqs propagate, i.e.
SDE->DE->GT. For the patch:
