Oops, I've somehow completely missed the early return in there. That means
we actually break the ironlake rps setup done in postinstall without any
of these patches. I've mixed this up with the pipestat check I've done
where I just WARN, but don't bail out.

tbh not sure why we bail out, at worst we'll get a few unclaimed register
warnings.

The only other place is if we get an interrupt right away, but that means
the preinstall hook has a bug somewhere. So the only place where behaviour
chances is still only ironlake, so still no explanation why hsw/bdw
suddenly start to fall over all together.
