We indirectly hold the runtime-pm for the intel_lrc_irq_handler() by
virtue of dev_priv->gt.awake keeping a wakeref whilst the requests are
busy. As this is not obvious from the code, add a comment.

It feels a big to c&p, but not sure if it worth putting a comment
"see comment in intel_lrc_irq_handler on why we don't have to " to
i915_guc_irq_handler or maybe dequeue?

For guc, the requirement for rpm is much less strict - the interface
with the guc is through ordinary memory not device memory, so we don't
need rpm_get (aiui). There is the mmio readback for !llc to ensure that
all GTT writes are flushed to system memory prior to dispatching the
workqueue -- that technically doesn't require rpm either.

I'm a bit more hesistant about adding such a comment to the guc atm, as
I think I will be more misleading then helpful.

I am not sure but was thinking that presumably device needs to be awake as we are adding stuff into the GuC's workqueue.

Regards,

Tvrtko
