SPI SWE: clear any pending boot-time interrupts in spi_init()
Charger plug/unplug hw logic in the Iota ABB has no built-in debouncing,
thus electrical contact bounce on the charging power connection interface
produces a lot of charger plug/unplug interrupts. When we boot in
charging mode (charging power present at boot time and is presumably
the cause of Switch-ON), some bounce may occur between the initial
Iota Switch-ON action and Calypso firmware booting. By clearing any
accumulated ITSTATREG interrupts on boot, we prevent these pre-boot
interrupts from generating charger plug/unplug events to FCHG, which
would upset smooth from-boot charging.

FC Tourmaline stdmodem functional configuration is equivalent to Magnetite hybrid. The only intentional diff from Magnetite to Tourmaline in the modem configuration is the change of Nucleus: Magnetite uses the blob version of Nucleus which came with TCS211-20070608, whereas Tourmaline uses the source version of Nucleus by Comrade XVilka. It is essentially a change from an unknown version of Nucleus to a known one, thus it should generally be considered an improvement - but as always with such changes, extensive verification and testing needs to be done in order to ensure that nothing got broken. Aside from the one intentional change of Nucleus version, FC Tourmaline is an entirely new firmware source tree, thus it is always possible that something could have got broken unintentionally, particularly in rarely-tested areas of the firmware. Therefore, extensive testing will need to be done before we can declare Tourmaline stdmodem as officially replacing Magnetite hybrid for stable modem products.
