Judging from this comment, how can you assume only one of the
three variants is actually enabled? It's against the spec, yes,
but it's not at all impossible afaict. I think you want the
return value here to be
- negative errno values (no need to discard the actual error
  codes) or
- a non-negative bitmap indicating which of the interrupt types
  is/are currently enabled.
That way ...

... equality comparisons like this one will actually become safe.
