It does fix the interrupt storms.  I added a debugging printf to fire each 
time msk_intr() sees this bit to see if it storms, etc.  What I see is that 
each time I would previously get a single printf reporting an interrupt storm, 
I now get a single printf reporting that the TWSI_RDY bit was set.
