  The periodic callout function and the interrupt handler both modify the
periodic flags. There is a possible race condition when an application is
going through dev_stop()/dev_start() and an interrupt handler is invoked.
We also need to ensure that periodic polling is not invoked in interrupt
context.

This patch handles such case by using separate variable to check for
interrupt context. Also, atomically load and store the periodic flag
value.
