irqchip will mask it in the ARM interrupt controller, so we will certainly never
see an interrupt. I'm not sure on the exact guarantees V3D_INTENA and
V3D_INTCTL make - does the state in INTENA affect if V3D will signal an
interrupt in INTCTL? We're not currently clearing the latter in postinstall.

and postinstall that would trigger the interrupt. So in that sense
it's certainly
superfluous.
