We need to ensure the loads from the descriptor are done after the MMIO store clearing the interrupts has completed, otherwise we might still miss work. A read back from the MMIO register will "push" the posted store and ioread32 has a barrier on weakly aordered architectures that will order subsequent accesses.

Linux kernel ============ This file was moved to Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst Please notice that there are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or ``make pdfdocs``. There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory, several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation. See Documentation/00-INDEX for a list of what is contained in each file. Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
