Nope, but it's what we do for other workarounds (e.g. the ones we load
through the rings except for one case in the cxt switch wa) and on other
platforms. And in general we've moved away from RMW wherever we can since
it had too much surprises.

It's really just something I spotted while stumbling over a w/a patch for
hsw that we never merged - I don't like the inconsistency. And it has
bitten us in the past.

And yes I haven't done the audit here, but the fact that you suggest we
need one kind proves my point ;-)
