In a simple test case that writes to scratch and then busy-waits for the batch to be signaled, we observe that the signal is before the write is posted. That is bad news. Splitting the flush + write_dword into two separate flush_dw prevents the issue from being reproduced, we can presume the post-sync op is not so post-sync.
