This redundant load of the ICR has been in the driver code for a long 
time. There's a small chance it is intentional, so at least minimal 
testing might be in order.

Finn - does the ICR_ARBITRATION_LOST bit have to be cleared by a write 
to the mode register? In that case, the first load would have been 
redundant and can be omitted without changing driver behaviour?
