Yes. I did that on purpose. Maybe that was too weird.
The idea was to emphasize that the IRQ is definitely only triggered
*IF* the interrupt bit is set. It just so happens that we currently
always set it.
The generation and trigger mechanics are supposed to be separate, but
we currently have no use case for them being separate (because we are
an omniscient HBA-HDD amalgamation), so they're mushed together here.
This is kind of like a documentation "NB."
I can replace it with:
/* Trigger IRQ if interrupt bit is set, which currently it always is: */
ahci_trigger_irq(...);
or just add that comment to the existing structure, etc.
(Or if you really prefer, just the naked IRQ trigger, but I feel
that's kind of misleading.)
