I was following a hunch that maybe these were being saved in the
powercontext and so we needed an active engine to be able to read --
just ruling out that maybe forcewake wasn't enough.

My thinking was if we can't apply workarounds to avoid known issues in HW,
further testing of HW was suspect.
Make the error as obnoxious as possible so that we have no choice but to
fix it before carrying on with testing.
