Indeed, until we call reset_default_submission all those unexpected
interrupts are redirected to the nop_submission_tasklet.

I think it should be more along the lines of

 	struct intel_timeline *tl;
 	unsigned long flags;
+	bool ok;

 	if (!test_bit(I915_WEDGED, &gt->reset.flags))
 		return true;
@@ -838,7 +839,11 @@ static bool __intel_gt_unset_wedged(struct intel_gt *gt)
 	}
 	spin_unlock_irqrestore(&timelines->lock, flags);

-	intel_gt_sanitize(gt, false);
+	ok = false;
+	if (!INTEL_INFO(gt->i915)->gpu_reset_clobbers_display)
+		ok = __intel_gt_reset(gt, ALL_ENGINES) == 0;
+	if (!ok)
+		return false;

 	/*
 	 * Undo nop_submit_request. We prevent all new i915 requests from

For bonus points, gpu_reset_clobbers_display should take into account
whether the display is active.
