Hi Joel,

I have a few comments below, including one that doesn't apply to you,
but to Alex Courbot.

Also, other than some trivia below, I can't find any problems with this
patch, other than possibly the above commit message wording, so
regardless of what we do with the .alter() method, please feel free to
add:

Alex, this ".alter" method is misnamed, IMHO. Because for registers,
The One True Way (or so I claim, haha) is to have the following methods:

    .read
    .modify, also known as RMW (read-modify-write)
    .write

"alter" never shows up in this naming scheme. I'm going to claim that
this is a bit jarring for old hardware/kernel programmers.

But it's not too late: these are only used in a very few places, and entirely
within nova-core, too.

Can I *please* send a patch to rename "alter" to "modify", perhaps?

Joel:

I am guessing that there is never a situation in which we would *disable*
these interrupts, right? Just thought I'd ask.
