* FIXME: Note that even though we have waited for execlists to be idle,
* there may still be an in-flight interrupt even though the CSB
* is now empty. synchronize_irq() makes sure that the residual
* interrupt is completed before we continue, but it doesn't prevent
* the HW from raising that residual interrupt later. To complete
* the shield we should coordinate disabling the CS irq with
* flushing the residual interrupt.
