Since MSI-X vectors do not require a clearing "handshake" from the system perspective, and the registered handler will not be called more than once for one occurrence of receipt of a vector, there is no requirement to flush the risc register write clearing the interrupt condition in the risc. Also, since the msi-x registered handlers are optimised for a particular vector, it is preferable to handle the one vector received per invocation of the handler.
