Apologies for being pedantic but 'manager' and 'controller' are
different concepts in SoundWire, see DisCo spec.
It's not a 1:1 mapping, a controller can rely on M managers

Can you elaborate on the race condition? I am not following what breaks,
and what entity generates the 'early interrupt'.

I am specifically concerned about adding this in common code without any
matching smp_load_acquire() - which is only added in the following patch
for the Qualcomm manager only, but not added for Intel/AMD managers. Is
this not a problem?
