Linux performs reads to all registers written including this one deliberately using an RMW cycle to avoid triggering an erratum in some early Pentium integrated APICs. Obviously it does not matter for most of the world as the workaround is build-time conditional, but you'll get it if you build a generic "runs everywhere" kernel.
