No. Only one interrupt can be served at a time. The problem is that
the incoming garbage is interpreted as valid data.

Incoming data is only considered valid if the previous byte was
received without errors.

Since the SH1 has separate interrupts for data reception and errors,
it is not simple to handle this in a readable way. I chose to keep
the code simple.

Feel free to try to use the interrupts, but I prefer the robust way.
