>no Andrea, this again is just fixing the symptom. Yes, we could zero pages
??? I am fixing nothing. The old code is not buggy.
The changes doesn't impact at all the fast path. It will only decrease the
irq latency during contection with the only cost of running _a_ cli before

Anyway I don't care. It's a 5 minutes hack and I just had my fun in
playing with it ;).
