I don't believe we need this one here.

pre-gen9 platform has psr but not dmc, so the case
where we need to restore the counter doesn't exist.

HAS_PSR(dev_priv) && HAS_CSR(dev_priv)
maybe?
So it gets clear that it is not because PSR that we need to restore
the counter, but also don't do it when not needed.
