Then in that case, never mind :) I kind of like the setup now because it
will always clean the queue out so to speak, and with interrupts enabled
shouldn't be too noticeable even if it does take some time. The only
exception would be sharing an interrupt with the aic7xxx for something like
a tulip. I guess I might add it in after all ....
