The periodic callout function and the interrupt handler both modify the periodic flags. There is a possible race condition when an application is going through dev_stop()/dev_start() and an interrupt handler is invoked. We also need to ensure that periodic polling is not invoked in interrupt context.
This patch handles such case by using separate variable to check for interrupt context. Also, atomically load and store the periodic flag value.
