Currently all counter devices are memory mapped devices so calling
counter_get_data() here with interrupts disabled is probably OK, but
if any counter drivers are added that use I2C/SPI/etc. that will take
a long time to read, it would cause problems leaving interrupts
disabled here.

Brainstorming: Would it make sense to separate the event from the
component value being read? As I mentioned in one of my previous
reviews, I think there are some cases where we would just want to
know when an event happened and not read any additional data anyway.
In the case of a slow communication bus, this would also let us
queue the event in the kfifo and notify poll right away and then
defer the reads in a workqueue for later.
