Thanks! I was not clear about this. I have ARM ARM version k, and it
says that 'When the value of the ENABLE bit is 0, the ISTATUS field is
UNKNOWN.' So I thought the istatus value doesn't matter if ENABLE is
0, and just set istatus bit regardless of ENABLE bit. If this is not
what the manual meant, then I'm happy to fix this.

Thanks,
Jintack
