I don't think "depends on BROKEN" necessarily means that we plan to
remove the driver.  I think it just means that it's currently broken,
but we hope to fix it eventually.

I think the problem here is the regular vs chained interrupt handlers,
right?  Radu has been looking at that recently, too, so maybe we can
have another go at it.
