If I understand your code right, then in order to enable a previously
disabled interrupt one has to call enable_irq() as many times as
disable_irq() previously has been called. Is this the intended
behavior? I thought enable_irq() should re-enable the interrupt
unconditionally? <-- question, I'm just unsure about it.
