I should have been more specific. I think you can loose IRQs as fsl_espi_irq() works now.
Consider this:
1) You get TX IRQ and enter fsl_espi_irq()
2) Enter fsl_espi_fill_tx_fifo() to process any chars until done.
3) Now you get one more TX IRQ
4) fsl_espi_irq() clear events -> IRQ from 3) is lost.
