In NetBSD, the code needs to be structured so that the driver code
would know whether it's running from interrupt or not. Normally
you shouldn't even worry about this, typically most of driver code
runs from within interrupt handler (driver's foo_intr() routine).
 
Why would you need to distinguish the two cases?
