[BNX2]: Reduce spurious INTA interrupts.
Spurious interrupts are often encountered especially on systems
using the 8259 PIC mode. This is because the I/O write to deassert
the interrupt is posted and won't get to the chip immediately. As
a result, the IRQ may remain asserted after the IRQ handler exits,
causing spurious interrupts.
Add read back to flush the I/O write to deassert the IRQ immediately.
We also store the last_status_idx immediately in the IRQ handler to
help detect whether the interrupt is ours or not when the IRQ is
entered again before ->poll gets called.
