In this case, the spurious interrupts still happen with eieio, but not
with sync. It's probably synchronizing the MMIO write with some
unrelated load from memory (such as reading the stack frame to return
from the mask function, or reading action->flags to determine whether to
check for IRQ_DISABLED).
