Yeah, the tweaks reduced some tests to submitting a single batch started
before the counters. Previously all tests started the counters then
submitted the workload. I had a test planned, obviously forgot to write
it. I couldn't think of a way to guarantee hitting the lite-restore case
thought.

I was just thinking that we shouldn't be poking into execlists here and
that we need an agnostic method for execlists to tell busy_stats that it
is starting active. Or something.

I thought we needed for stats.active to reflect the number of pending
context_out we will report. So for the lite-restore case, I thought 2
was the correct value.
