It's the software-issued controller reset... at board power on, the insert 
interrupt bit is set (and UEFI depends on seeing it set), but when the Windows 
driver starts, it issues a reset command which clears the interrupt status. It 
also has a bug which livelocks the system if an insert interrupt is seen after 
that reset (which never happens on hardware, obviously).
