Are you still against adding clock support to the driver?  If not, we'll
need to move to a threaded handler when clocks come in anyways...

Can you elaborate what you mean regarding shared interrupts?  Even
without clocks it seems like the code clarity / performance tradeoff
would favor a threaded handler, given that performance isn't important
here.
