The hardware (well, *gateware*) is coded to populate the EV_PENDING register regardless of whether IRQs are enabled via the EV_ENABLE register (or indeed, whether IRQs are even "wired into" the design at all). See
https://github.com/enjoy-digital/litex/blob/master/litex/soc/cores/uart.py and https://github.com/enjoy-digital/litex/blob/master/litex/soc/interconnect/csr_eventmanager.py
for a starting point on why it's OK to just assume that...
