So independent of the indirection issue can we have a theory of operation
on why not using a read to flush the posted writes to disable/enable the
interrupt (either variant) here is fine?  Let's assume we have a worse
case implementation where no write ever gets delivered to the device
until we do a read neither of them will ever hit the device as we don't
really do MMIO reads in nvme during normal operation.
