intel_mark_busy() is where we note the transition in userspace activity,
it should be where we put all the little hooks and pm tweaks required.
If you however need the pc8 disable earlier than the ring register write,
we should do it in intel_ring_begin(). Ultimately, though we should be
able to squash it into a single operation such that we never submit a
command before intel_mark_busy(). Hmm, easier in fact just to move
intel_mark_busy() to intel_ring_begin() and I think everybody is happy.
