I don't think this can be implied in any case, because if IRQ A fires
and then the CPU speculates its way through AIC into the IRQ B handler,
which reads DMA'd memory, then IRQ B fires and it has higher priority
and *that* is what ends up getting returned from the event register
first, the execution will commit with an ordering violation.
I'm pretty sure we need *some* level of explicit synchronization between
reading the event register and actually delivering IRQs downstream.
Using _relaxed might be okay, but we'd still need something where the
isb() currently is in aic_handle_irq (though I admit I don't have a
perfect picture of the memory ordering subtleties involved here yet).
Incidentally, just from the races and problems I've run into with
trivial tests in m1n1, these CPUs seem to be *very* eager to speculate
and I suspect they will help uncover race conditions in Linux...
