Yes, sorry about that.
I think the logic for this should be:

When we get irq N, first we mask irq N, then EOI irq N.
Then call the handler. If there is a user handler for irq N, let the irq_ack
unmask irq N, otherwise we need to unmask irq N now.
But don't EOI in the user handlers anymore.

What do you think?
