I see I have used the term asynchronously a bit too lightly. I had
thought of setting up a separate task which could be signaled to
perform the service & it could also signal the main task when
necessary, but I really shouldn't have two tasks talking to my device.
In fact, after thinking about it a bit more I am even more confused
about how to go about accomplishing what I want. So, it's back to the
drawing board...

I still would like to know if interrupt handlers can be inserted into a
shared handler's linked list & yet operate in user mode - I don't see
how that would be possible given my understanding of how things work.

Thanks much,
