I cleaned up this part in v2 (as you probably noticed). I was just an 
artifact of how the fix got initially made.

I've also located the place where the comment belongs to. "The above 
check" refers to the THRE test. However, I don't fully understand the 
comment itself, that is, why the test is claimed to only work for for the 
first time. As long as FIFO is cleared beforehand, I think it should work 
on other times too.
