Normally, we try and skip submission if ELSP[1] is filled. However, we
may desire to enable timeslicing due to the queue priority, even if
ELSP[1] itself does not require timeslicing. That is the queue is equal
priority to ELSP[0] and higher priority then ELSP[1]. Previously, we
would wait until the context switch to preempt the current ELSP[1], but
with timeslicing, we want to preempt ELSP[0] and replace it with the
queue.
Why we want to preempt ELSP[0] if the statement is queue is not higher
priority from it?
In writing the test case, it become quickly apparent that we were also
suppressing the tasklet during promotion and so failing to notice when
the queue started requiring timeslicing.

Okay this eventually resolves to the exact same condition as before so
it seems to only be churn as consequence of removing

Is this the same as the current:

Hm no, it now allows for high prio tasks to preempt equal high prio.
So it will kick the tasklet and dequeue will then decide no to
need_preempt after all. Where it is the catch? Okay catch is in the
other execlist_dequeue hunk - that it will now enable the timeslice timer.
I have to say it is getting very difficult to tie everything together. I
wish for a simpler design with more centralized "magic" on hadling
priorities etc.
