At least the hardware has separate enable/disable registers
so the driver isn't doing RMW cycles.

I'd guess that the normal condition is that no interrupts are pending.
So it can be held to one (slow) read by checking:
	if (ints && (ints & ohci_readl(ohci, &regs->intrenable)))
Although maybe there are some 'never enabled' interrupts that
might need masking?
