The biggest issue being whether or not the same locking applies equally
to all submission backends. That's not yet true, but then again we don't
use stats everywhere. So whether or not that's an issue, I don't know,
but it's enough to make me want to punt changing the locking inside
intel_enable_engine_stats to a separate patch.
