Hmm. Maybe just to confirm that they still happen, and thus suppressing
is still neded.

The check only looks at pipes that have underrun reporting enabled. I
suppose it might be possible to have it check all the pipes. At the
point where we call it no explicit suppression should be happening, so
the only reason why underrun reporting would be disabled on any pipe is
due to detecting a previous underrun via the interrupt.
